Re: Got me a Starchief
Thanks for checking in guys.
GA, it does seem close to motor hanging time, I've been concentrating on the boat though, and not the work that needs to be done on the motor. I have to bring the boat home this week, the warehouse has been sold, so I'll start on the motor while the boat goes into a cocoon for a while.
Michael, I really like that Nautolex. I wish I had bought enough to do the floor.
Thanks IM, the sandstone was a last minute decision, I almost went with silver gray with the green. I think the sandstone gives it more of a retro look without the industrial look the gray would have given it. And a couple big motors? hmmmmm, maybe I should use my Merc 850 as the main, and the 50 as a kicker..
Not a whole lot of progress today. I cut the holes in the new dash for the tach and voltmeter, drilled the holes for the switches and stained the whole assembly.
In true bottom feeder fashion, I took apart the old push/pull switches and cleaned them all up to reuse them. Hopefully I finish work early enough tomorrow to put the first coat of varnish on the dash.
