I bought 2 13" wheels and tires for my Pirahna already mounted at Wal-Mart for under $200 tax and all carry out the door. But that is 2/3 of what your paying for the boat!!!  LOL!!

Yeah i know Harbor freight sells trailer wheels/tires fairly cheap, but are these pretty universal on the lug patterns??

Not much of a weight rating on them tires, not sure I'd trust them on a single axle under a jet boat. That's just me though.  :wink:

I just have to ask! If you are moving out of state soon, why get such a major project? Just wondering. :smile14:

think.gif I no longer have any connections in that line of work. I use to do alignments for the Klien Funeral home, but I don't any more. Sorry, I can't help out with that one. :smile25:

That bad???  Lol

Ok, been talking to the guy and got him down to 750 for everything, he sent me a few more pics and it has a JG pump and engine is unknown internally but came from a car he thinks.

Found this one that isn't a project boat, but i think its exactly what i want and what im looking for!  Beautiful boat, but to be honest id be happier if it had a BBC, but that can always be swapped, and this one is lake ready and very nice.

Just wanted to see what you guys thought about its condition vs firm asking price.

Dam I like it, to bad it's a Ford engine.  I think for the 6K I line the 69 Tahiti, which to me looks like it would be a smoother riding boat but I may be wrong.

Got to go with Drum on this one!  But I'm not the one buying the boat! :smile30:

I would not do the black interior in our area! It looks good, and cooks even better! :smile20:
