Beautiful!

I remember a 26’ w/twins in Fla.
Was on a lift and always kept my eye on it.

It surfaced at a shop by our house and I stopped to check on it.
Shop owner used much colorful language describing level of corrosion on both drives.
Said he had to use the fire wrench on everything and still wasn’t sure he would get it apart w/o destroying it!

Told me to run 😂

Always liked the 26’s.
What are you using for power?

Way cool project.

Very nice.

W/500 HP’s, set up right, it should rip.

Very cool, very unique ride.
You will have one of one, which is worth a lot to me.
