I had no idea your 28 was an early model. Good job on the mods. Your work is amazing.

If there is any way I could talk to you about the conversion that would be great. Could save me some time in the long run. PM me your phone number if possible and I will give you a call tomorrow. I've been struggling with hatch size, and seat placement. To much to type. I guess this means you built a seat base as well. Yep, I need to talk to you.

If you still have those pins I will need a set for the race hatch for quick install/detach. I don't mind buying them and having them shipped.

I will look for the pins. I built the mounts from aluminum. This is what it looks like now.

How does the hatch open if the batteries go dead? Is there some way to manually open it?

Yes, remove the two 5/16 hinge bolts, lift rear of hatch, rotate back.

FP,

Just an FYI, Larry built a cooler into his hatch.

Yes Larry is gifted.

And as you already know, he'll be boring his own outboard engine blocks as described from the other forum which I will not spell out , but use its initials S&F :)

Haven't had much time in the shop over the holiday's, but I have been doing some shopping. Ordered me a new Aluminum trailer, 300x powerhead, and another sporty gear case.

Painter is on my tail about getting it to him ASAP. I may have to do the dash layout after paint and go ahead and let him do his thing.
