Fountain haha thats the 80's at it's finest!!! New wheel this winter, rework the whole trailer, new engine hatch and hopefully i'll have some time to work on the cuddy...... Shag carpet isn't going to cut it. No wood either
 
Looks great, hey do you have any idea what the difference is between the 27 Squadron and your Cig are? Are they the same hull with different deck? Keep the pics coming:cool:

Nervous???

Not here.
This board is based on trying to help everyone out in projects like this.
We absolutely LOVE these type of threads.
This board was basically built by guys that are currently doing restos, or just trying to tweak the current rig a bit, or pro's in the biz.
You did a great job on your boat. Now, you can feel free to share what you learned in the process with the rest of us that are still working on our boats.
By the Way - we have a lot of guys here that can answer a lot of those trial-AND-error questions before they cost you a fortune.
A warm welcome, and keep posting - we love this stuff:bump:
 
ha ha well power for right now is staying pretty mild. I'm a younger guy and it was hard enough to get insurance.... There is a pair of 454's I had bored .60 over, roller rocker assembly, mild cam, big oval port heads, just some quadrajets. The boat runs pretty well, but I dont have a speedo or gps in it so I dont know what numbers Im putting up.

Nice, never run a BB 28, bet thats an adventure. Beautiful boat man, please continue to share it with us :) :)

You might want to consider bringing it down to the Awakening of the Horses in Kentucky next May, it would certainly be a most welcome addition to the event!
 
Very nice work, love it.

And never be nervous here, one of our top mandates for this site is to help the do-it-yourselfers be as successful as possible. Most of us started that way and still try to be hands on as much as possible.

Anything you want to know, our tech experts will be glad to help you with.

Again, fantastic job.....
