Sorry I dont mean to HiJack the thread but there is a few 32AOB guys here that seem to know these boats. Any clue what my boat was raced as? It is an 87 and was a raceboat acording to Skater.

The project looks awsome, cant wait to see it done.

Were was stylin originally race out of. Showdown raced all over the great lakes area, atlantic city,
virgina beach, etc. When we started to remove the contaminated core in the top of the tunnel, we ended up all the way up into the drivers compartment, and into the fuel tank lids, also had to remove the stringers. Thats when I thought working on it a few hours every few weeks, it would take to long for me to do the work. Thats when I went to see peter at Skater
