Looks sweet! Mind if I ask why the stripe only on one side?

Nice! The stripe on one side gives it that 60's era British racing car feel to it. I like it allot.

Nurseman, not sure.....just going back with the styling that was there originally


Every time I see this view of this boat I get goosebumps. She's got some of the best lines of any boat I've ever seen. I can't WAIT to see her all dressed up and on the water. You have to promise me to get up on a ladder at this angle and take a pic of the entire boat when she's all done so we can see her in ALL HER GLORY!!!

HURRY UP CORDELL!!!!!

Mike, I share the same sentiment.....I first saw one of these boats for sale on evilbay on Arizona....I thought that this is the coolest boat Ive ever seen!! for me, only 1 other (1964 Johnson Deluxe), do I think the same way about. From that moment, I started searching for one about two years later, I found this one...

Thanks all for the comments....Im just trying to pull the beauty back out of a forgotten carcass!! Hopefully I do it justice....
