Restore almost compete thank you all

Post by bkwesq »

10 months ago I couldn't change my own oil in my car. Thanks to reading books, asking questions, learning from my mistakes and all the great help for you guys and the archive the "new" engine is back in the boat, all wood restored new paint on bottom and just some water and electric to go I'm splashing on fathers day!

Total costs including boat and motor $6523 the boat is probably worth 5000 but I don't care it was a pleasure and a pain

Going to pull the fuel tank and replace copper lines hope it comes out without cutting floor!
