Yes that's my boat above! My boat has all of the original panels, teak, seats, gauges. Literally, everything is there, and 90% of it is in really good shape. I agree though, I've gone back and forth about the padded gunnels. If I keep the teak batten side panels, I'm going to keep the padded gunnels. The one thing that is going to go, is the twin seat. I have a set of power McLeod bolsters (current formula seats) that I'm going to use. Once you have power seats it's to hard to go back to manual.

Yeah, I'm pretty excited. I'm going to finally get in it and come up with a game plan on what to start on first. I think I'm going to shoot to have it in the water by next spring. Unless I find something drastically wrong, I don't see that being a tough timeline at all.

Well just so you have it on record my top speed was 73mph on liquid filled Gaffrig (no gps back in those days) running about 7 pounds of boost through the turbos. Can't wait to see how yours turns out as well as hblair's, love them boats!
