Well with all this talk of donor boats and flip boats, I was begining to forget that there was still a restoration in progress, fired up the shop stove and braved the 4 inches of snow, and did the following.

Hey I like these observation games... It looks like the flywheel is missing from one pic to the next.

I think the flywheel is off in both pics. But the bimini is mounted in the second.

Next guess. :D

WOW you guys are good,

The flywheel is off in both pics because my stator finally came in, boy having the new compressor rocks, my impact didn't even slow down for that flywheel nut.

The bimini is on for both pics,

I did more work on the stern carpeted the seat backs hooked up some fuel line, and started changing the stator today.

Agreed, the flywheel was not on the motor, it was sitting next to the motor with the puller still on it and in 2nd pic it wasn't there.

The weather has not cooperated at all with my plans of picking up the donor hopefully going to get it tomorrow.

Today.





Worked on the Glovebox, worked on the jumpseats, and installed the stator.

Just spent the last couple of hours reading up on your thread, fantastic work on your SC. Let me know when you get to sanding and finishing your pine floors, I've done lots, and would certainly help out. Subscribed in.

Glad you got it home, safe and sound. You will get an overnight pass on the photo rule only cuz it was dark when you got home, but the mob will be watching when the sun comes up.;)
