PRO53 HONDO FLATTY ?

[pro53]

Well I just picked up a HONDO FLATTY.Dont know the year, Looks like all the major running gears there.One of those deals you cant pass up the owner only wanted $400.00.Dont know what I am going to do with it right now.It did not have a tittle.The runners are good and the transom was good, no rot.Should I build it or sell it? Could I go fast with a mild motor?Most likely keep it .I reallt dig the style!Did I go wrong for the price?Inquiring minds want to know? My pictures suck will get some better ones tommorrow :

Man I know.Sometimes you get lucky sometimes you dont.I was telling my wife that it was a t deck :idk and there wasnt that many made and she said dont even get rid off it ::grin: I found it when I was going to give a guy a Quote for a fuel tank.I guess one day I will be pulling two boats to a meet.It is defenteley a Hondo, it says it a couple of places in the boat.And the guy I bought it from says it was a 68 year model.Could anybody tell me if that would be correct?

I see alot of potential there George!!! If you ever need any help with it let me know. I'll work for beer.

You know it must have been a old school boat I think it had a wood grain steering wheel on it. :
