    Looks good...real good.

    Looks good Scott. Where does the owner live, near you?
    I have far too many boats, just ask my Wife.
    If you have something of great quality, and you take care of it, it will last forever.

    Very nice. Scott, that things looks "good" to start with. A bit of a time capsule.

    Definately nicer now.

    What was ( is ) the drive train set-up?

    Owner lives here on the East Coast. All coring , stringers and transom have been replaced...everything. It will have a 3.0..... Should be an amazing example of a correct baby. Tons of NOS stuff was found and will be used.

    Hull

    I believe its hull #3 or 4, I could ask my buddy who use to own it. I drove this boat for many years, what a blast it was to ride in. The glass work was done right down the street from where I live.

    ----If this is Dans boat, I rode in it back about 8 or 10 years ago and it seemed very solid. That was about a year or two before he sold it to a really nice guy on the west coast of Florida. Now Dan has a beautiful 27 Magnum Sport, and I believe he still has his crackerbox. Cant remember his name but I believe he also had 2 unrestored El Pescadors and a couple of other go fasts too. Resto is beautiful, as usual, Scott!.......Bill S

    don't think this is the Mi. boat this was an Northeast coast boat
    When the sky is grey,look out to sea.
    When the waves are high and the light is dying,
    well raise a glass and think of me...
    When I'm home again,
    boys, I'll be buying!
