what do you mean your just "ok". you're living the dream bro!!! that reality show should pick you up and follow you and eddie next year in the phantom... ill be your backup driver when eddie cant make it :):ernaehrung004:

Well.......I'm not skeered to try. I didn't have to pull the drive, just removed the back cap. I need to buy an alignment tool, before I start pulling drives.

I haven't boughten the motors yet........just bought a house. The IRS is going to pay for them:D.

Got my Awlgrip DVD guide yesterday. I'm hoping to start on the bilge this weekend and get those old 454's out of the shop.

Hey ,,,,,,befor i go on TV i need to get a fitness trainer .LOL

And maybe a dentist .:drink:

PS.: i have a free lifelong membership in a fitness club in OC ,,,but i never make it there,,,because my friend will not invite me. Hahaha

Andy, Im really looking foward to you getting your boat together and knowing what you have.

The paint will be worthwhile.

Anyone interested in going to Tickfaw in May? Im planning to make the trip at this point.

The entire REAL B.S. THREAD is going. :ernaehrung004: even if we have to ride with you:cool:

your always invited just be ready to sell some memberships when you come cause thats all im about these days.:ernaehrung004: my boat is falling behind and i hope i have it done for desert storm in april.

ps you still have to pay for a membership!! no one rides for free

you should try for havasu instead of ticfaw... much bigger event and is one hell of a good time. whats the dates on ticfaw anyway?

Hey,,,but i got my SHAPE shirt,,,,and i still need to pay ??????

This is not racing .LOL:eek:

PS.: do you know a dentist up there too??????

seen eddies boat on ebay?? what you guys planning?? should you tell me something

:eek::eek: AND WAY TO CHEAP :eek:

Don't know what his plans are,,,i think money. LOL

Hope someone buy's it and mine,,,but i realy don't whant to sell mine though.

I love my boat and keep it as a pleasureboatif i am not racing it.
Blew one 525 in the phantom,,,,that much to blue motors ,,,and i thought its only custom built engines that break.

Hell that gives me hope !!!!!!!!:ernaehrung004:

That means i need to come up there ???????:drink::evilb:

I won't have any money left after these engines to venture outside of Texoma. I wanted to go to Tickfaw last year until I found out how shallow it is. Looks like a lot of fun. I like the idea of going to a bar in the middle of the swamp inaccessible by car.

BRing it. :evilb:

It's not the sahllow that gets you. It's those random stumps sticking up just under the water.

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

How ya'll doing?

Vyper - you get some work done on the Apache? Houseboat?

Collin - did you get the firefox back yet? How is your cousin's search going? You looking at buying a 20ft cig too?

I'm selling my old 454 blocks. It's the old 454 365hp mark IV. One is still running and I still need to take it apart. The other is disasembled and cleaned up to look at. Droped a valve in the one, but it's rebuildable. Looking for $1,900 OBO for both. I'm switching over all the accessories that will work on the 502's, but everything else can go.

Yea Andy, Hows the houseboat search coming? Find any gems up there?

HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Thats good stuff.

Its clearly winter...

You guys catch the TV show Party Heat on Tru TV? They have two episodes that show them on the tickfaw river. Very interesting to watch the Cajun's and boating. Truly a different world down there. I guess when you have that many boats tied up in the shallows, you dont have to worry about gators?

So who is going to be the first one on the water this year?

There was a new Concept with 300 XS's out on Friday. Kicked a rod out of one. Bad start for him....

LOL!!! well that one sold before i could qualify for "special" financing to afford it!!!

tell your mom the restraining order is still in affect and contact thru oso still violates that order!!!! and stop callin it APACHA!!!!!

nothing yet... havent looked really hard tho you seen any deals??

I actually looked around a little. My wife decided that a 33/34 Sea Ray would be more her style. There are some deals out there, and I can go get it using my trailer. I must say I like her style.

ive seen a lot of good deals on sea rays i just want something big enough we dont have to leave it for a weekned. 33/34 ft might get a little cramped if we had company??

AZIMUT baby,,,puk searay !!!! LOL

Or a nice sunseeker will do the job aswell Andy.:drink:

We bought our 2008 brand new for what people are trying to sell used 2006's for.

Their are some good deals on the market.

Matt, Turner is leaving Dallas today to head to Miami and get the Cigarette. Should be at Legend Marine Group Sunday. Then were going to do a photo shoot in one of the hangers he behind my office on the Addison Airport then its heading to Solder Creek.

I cant wait to see it. I hope the roads are cleaned up before he gets back. Dont want to sandblast that new trailer.

I like the old 35ft SR express cruisers. Some pack 502's and get up to 35mph.

It's kept at Texoma. We already finished derigging. Now it's time for paint and prep. I'll give you a shout when I get done painting the bilge and start rigging everything.

Yes, look for a call mid October...

Andy, I am having your name embroidered on one of my back seats, dont worry.


PS: Notice anything different about me?

Yep, that going to be the name of our new restoration shop, LOL?

I'm going to get you a two man cot with buzzards on it for the lakehouse. :evilb:

i can think of another name for you two!!! lol

Aw chit, guess I was asking for that. The two man cot was for him and his wife. A real dump that place is:drink:

Bert - I still have your number.

like shootin fish in a barrel!

thats a bad a$$ boat!

hey andy!!

whats the new paint job gonna look like you got any progress pics?

Whaaaaaaaat???? you don't like the arrows? The paint job is in really good shape. I'm leaving it, but if I did change it, it would look like this, only in red to match the dash with some white arrows.

i like the old paint job! i thought i read you were repainting it? get us some progress pics of what you are doing
