Coming together nicely...No one does a restore (or a new boat) Like Philly.

Here's what it looked like new...Though I'd say it'll be better than new now.

saw it in person a few weeks ago at phils, great looking boat, even better in person- somebodys going to get a brand new straight bottom
 
The pictures of the original paint don't do it justice. The airbrushed gun on the side was killer. This boat was extra light and ran awesome. When done, it will be one of the nicest straight bottom Top Guns out there. The new owner will have a brand new looking boat for short money.
 
Depending on the power, what would the cost of a redo like that be? By the time it was done would you be better of with a little newer TS?

Yes but this was a special boat to begin with (celebrity owned, F2 layup etc). Of course when I say celebrity I mean PM203 (:sifone:).


It is going to be a nice piece when finished and if you don't care about being the fastest TG on the water you will have a really nice rig for less than 1/2 of a new one.........

What does it have for motors? In 2000 Merc could not keep up with the demand for 500-EFI's. They offered the 540 500HP Bulldogs at a discount. In 2000 you could buy a staight bottom gun with bulldogs for about $175.
