Ok gang, I wanna start laying out some of this build here, since I started messing with it already. Given that this is my 3rd current thread, I'll prolly be bouncing around as supplies and time permits.
The initial parts of these progress reports have already taken place, so im catching up this thread to the completed work. Also, some of the pics are redundant from my other thread, but ill just start from the beginning here.
Long story short, I stayed at a house in Ship Bottom NJ over Labor Day week. In the yard was an old ski boat, and the owner said if I can get it out, I can have it....So I towed it home after days of scrambling and creative jockeying.
The title says its a checkmate, 1972, and 16'...from measurments taken, and pics on the net, it appears to be an MX-15. It had a Chrysler 105 hp circa 1980's 82-83 i think.
This is how I found it.
