Lethal Weapon & Jenny's Express I had tons of seat time in Gary's Apache, and rode with Bill a lot in all his Cigarettes. Funny thing, two little kids used to ride up to Harbor Island to see us leave. Those two little kids are now big kids; Will Lynch - Lynch Mob 39 Cigarette, and Bill...

No 31 Bill never had a 31, he had 2-35's, 2-38's, 1-63 SeaRay, Now a 68 SeaRay.

Ss Sean is Nationwide! LOL Actually he called me Monday from I95 right around here. He was headed to do some work in the Carolinas and if I recall correctly Louisiana and Texas. So he may not be online for a while. Barry

Well if we are going off topic, I also have a '70 Corvette Convertible in need of restoration for sale. (I really do) LOL Barry

20 Cigarette Thanks for the referral Sean. I have a decent 20 Cigarette for sale. Shoot me your e-mail and I can send you some pictures. Classic 20’ Cigarette Racing Team runabout 454 Cubic inch 365 Horsepower TRS outdrive Hynautic steering Nice condition Fast but economical Handles...

National Hi Gordo - MID-Ocean (Todd?) mentions National Liquidators. When we bought the 38 TG hull in 2002, we dealt with a fellow there named Ron Brozik. Nice guy, pretty knowledgable, and helpful. Happy New Year, I hope this year and beyond you have good health. Barry

Steve - The IMCO's are now sold, but the gentleman who bought them is selling his complete stock XR setup for $7,500 if your guy is interested. Thanks, Barry

Wanted I have helped Bill wrench on this Gladiator a few times. It is a very, very nice piece. Great looking boat that can really handle rough water. Whoever buys it is getting a great boat at probably 1/6th the cost of new. I'll miss working with Bill on the boat, but I'm an old drag race...

Price Steve - $14,900 for everything less the wingplates or $15,600 with the wingplates. Obviously that's less than two drives alone would cost and the cost on the wingplates is less than half of what one costs. Thanks, Barry

Bracket I may have the bracket but not sure of the part number. I have two of the big block brackets that have like a collar built in that the pump slides in to. Barry

Bravo's I have 2 Bravo XR Extremes, 2 HD transom assemblies. One of the transom assemblies is new, the other has 3 hours as do the drives. Also 2 brand new couplers, 2 bell housings. Basically all the stuff to convert. Also have 2 new M&M Bracket assemblies for the steering. I'm not sure...

Easy Sean..... Easy Sean, you know my latest build is with twin smallblocks! LOL Agreed, cubes are always better, but I am trying something different this time. That is lighter boat / good power to weight ratio. 76% of the power we had in our Top Gun, but less that 50% of the weight...

Just working a ton. Building a new shop underneath my house. It is coming along great but it is a lot of work. How are you? How is Tammy doing? Tell her I said hi. I ran into Gene (from Bill's crew) at Harborside the other night but he said he hasn't seen you. How is the Fountain coming...

Wing plates? Rob - Do you happen to have any Bravo wingplates? Thanks, Barry

Hny Happy New Year Rob, I hope you and Tammy have a great 2009. Barry
