It was time to tackle the tower of power. First things first. carbs need to be rebuilt. As i got into the engine i realized nothing had been replaced. I believe this motor sat for a very long time.. that's ok because everything is about to be replaced.
plugs
starter
carbs rebuilt
new fuel lines
fuel pump rebuild
new wires
new recitifer
new stator
new power packs (CDI)
new water pump
new lower seals
gear oil
timing checked / adjusted
Once the tower of power was put back together i installed the dash panel and ran the electrical.
With the help of my cousin i was able to start the motor and check timing after 10 years of sitting! After some float bowl adjustmets i was able to have it running good.
now its time to finish the boat. I chose the original blue/black marine carpet. installed the rear seat with it pushed forward 10 inches. and then installed the front seats. i did this in 1 day. it was a long and hard day. looking back i defiantly rushed at the end. i relay wanted to get it in the lake for the maiden voyage. by this time it was mid June 2017.
I did not replace the gunwalls with vynal padding. instead i used blue fade to black sparkle drum wrap. then used chrome trim.
the next few pictures will be of the finished product.
