    '67 14' Alumacraft Shallow V and Trailer remodel.

    Where do you buy parts for your motor at. Mine was running great until this weekend, i put new gas in the tank and it must have sucked something up into the carb and I think that i need to go ahead and rebuild it. Just need to know where to get the parts.

    Looks really good. I do have one suggestion that I wish I would have thought about when cutting my storage lids out. Don't for get that when you fold your carpet under to leave room for about a 1/4" and then another for the lid. I had to put another peice of wood on the inside of my frames...

    14ft Monark Jon Mod

    It looks really great. I really like the White myself, but like they said up above, I think that I would be really hard to keep clean, but I really like it. The deck looks good as well. Keep up the good work.

    Well, I did not get her finished this weekend but I am getting so close, and I can't hardly stand it.

    What type of screws to you recomend using when going through the aluminum bench seats. I am thinking that I don't want to use just regular wood screws for that.
