[QUOTE="cosmic12, post: 420224, member: 21520"] OK, guess I have figured out where those thoughts will get me here. I still have not made up my mind on what I will do with this and have put it on the back burner for awhile as I have a couple others I need to get done first. So here is what it looked like with my 50hp Merc on it. I have no problem with the look but it will be to slow. For those afraid I am going Butcher the hull please believe I am not going to do that. I am a pro body/ metal man and painter that has spent the better part of 50 years building and restoring cars /trucks/boats to the highest standards winning many National 1st place awards. I also do Kustoms and street rods and have been chopping tops since I was about 14yrs old so I do know my way around the English wheel and many if not all metal working tools. With that said I have grown very tired of building something that anybody with a thick wallet could have or what was built by a factory for every Tom/Dick/and Harry. What was done has been done and I have been there done that. Creativity is not a bad thing. In the end I would guess I have found the wrong site, thank you for the input I do understand I am just not of the cookie cutter generation. Also just for reference this is my daily driver parts runner. It holds true to its heritage but the mods are countless. Outa here. Mark [/QUOTE]
