Hey all,

Thought I'd post a link to a resto I'm working on for others to laugh at. I did a GT-150 a couple years ago that came out nice but obviously learned a lot. I'll be hitting this one hard this winter. It was a freebee heading to the dump (and I hate the classics going to the dump)!

I've got it apart and am working on the bottom of the hull (mucho problemo).

www.jetflite.blogspot.com

I think my previous 150 address is on the signature.

Out.

Ahhh the V 143; a favorite boat from my youth. Always wished I had one!
Looks like you dove head-first into this project. Good luck with it.
I agree you should keep the original look. Keep us updated PLEASE! :)

Cool project!

Love the ad with GTO (and deep V)

Don't know about the snowing part though, guess I'll stop waiting for it to warm up and get back outside to my block sanding.
