Most???? Show me a boat, car or motorcycle that's not worth more parted out. That being said; are the drives still for sale & can you post some pics if they are. I assume they are 1.5

Not sure if the whole 40k thing was a real number or not but that would be a very nice buy, the 353's are coming down, I keep telling the wife no, but just maybe just maybe, anyone know anything about installing hydr steering?

From some reason the "parting" of this boat keeps bothering me.........but I understand and it's not mine.





I am going to have to check just how much cash I can get my hands on tomorrow.

whats bothering you about it ??? nothing to hide .I parted a 2000 model 353 2 years ago ..member on here bought it .parted my 99 382 also ..another member here bought it ...it needs to go tired of all the prop kickers

I part cobras out all the time, I get same thing.... Worth much more in parts then together when broken or in most cases even running if the car needs paint and has beat seats it's a better parts car due to fixed value, guys say how much whole I give them a number usually 2000.00 less then it's worth in part to me, they whine I am parting and never buy whole day it's not worth it... NO CHIT that's why it's a parts car!! Mike Mello knows we talk about it all the time and laugh

Your actions don't bother me, I even understand your logic. It just seems too close to a being a clean/running boat and I hate to see a Formula "disappear" (I assume it simply needs some routine maintenance and polish?). Some years ago I bought a 382 that had been neglected and brought it back to a beautiful boat.

Jamie77905 11-18-2014 12:43 PM

I think the problem is that the people who would buy this boat ( middle income) have it pretty hard right now. Everything is going up in price and pay is the same. Don't even want to talk about health insurance.... Performance boating is dropping off the map. Look at the builders going bankrupt. But people who still own boats and can afford the fuel prices will enjoy the torn out pieces of a good running boat. So the way I see it, there are more people that could use a " piece" of this boat than people who have the cash to enjoy the ride itself. Sucks.

Drew555 11-20-2014 10:05 PM

Can you pm me with what you would take for the motors. Can't stop thinking about it. Cash in hand if price is right.

gunny 11-20-2014 10:26 PM

I have seen your post on the guages, I relize your not parting them at this time. IN THE EVENT that you get to where you can not move the hull for the price your after, as I told Mike Mello on Facebook Swap Shop when he first listed the boat, I was and remain interested in a single set of guages, the cockpit cover, and steering wheel if it did not go with the sale of the hydrolic steering system. This is all contingent on you getting to the point of parting the hull complete, stands to reason if you didnt get what you wanted out of it as a hole theres a good chance you won't get what you want as a stripped hull. so with that I am just throwing this out there. thanks and good luck

Jordan 11-21-2014 10:03 AM

Gunny, I am VERY sure the cockpit cover will stay with the boat. Also if the gauges get sold they will more than likely stay as a set. I would not get your hopes up is all I am saying, good luck in your search.

Bump for Mike

smokin' gun 11-21-2014 10:07 AM

Mike who..??? the boat is mine

Jordan 11-21-2014 11:03 AM

Mello ?

abmotorman 11-21-2014 11:19 AM

My neighbor had a beautiful, always store inside 1998 Blown 353 on a EOH Myco trailer that couldn't sell for over 2 years. Found a good trade for a smaller Mirage and cash. Trades are unfortunately what it takes to move items like this since most banks won't give loans due to age.

Hope you make out

smokin' gun 11-27-2014 07:39 PM
