Thank you everyone for your support and help!!!:evilb:

Well....Any updates? Did it float or sink? How about a video of that bad boy!

Still waiting on the wiring:mad: Was supposed to be done Monday, Monday stretched to Tuesday- had just an hour left on Tuesday so I left it till Friday- Friday I show up at closing and they still have a long way to go- so I grabbed it and at least put the other drive and tie bar on- I will try to post some pics up tonight. I can't complain too much because what they have done so far is looking pretty good:cool:

some close ups of the wiring in process- the first one is the fuse block, the second two is the back of the dash:rolleyes:

Boy it looks real good man! I love the clean look at the back. Mine seems cluttered with the external steering rams!

I should have taken a week off from work and flew out there! We could have had that thing wired and in the water by now! :ernaehrung004::D

Look'n good Scottie. Been following yours and 502's project threads for awhile. Won't be long now. Post some pics on the Club Scarab thread. Got a couple other left coasters on there also.

Thanks. From what I could see on the transom shot, the finish looks great.
