Project X

[spd500]

As of right now, the motor is ready to drop in, new seat shells are being made for it this week,  and I am waiting for new gauges. It can be sold with just the buckets that came with the boat or new interior.  Or with the LS conversion, a BBC, or no motor.  Price is depending on how you want it.  I really am not in a hurry to sell, when its done I will play with it while I finish the TX19.

That TX bug will get ya every time! I have it real bad! crazy.gif Good luck!

After alot of thought and discussion with the family I regret to say,  this one is going to be for sale.  Bonnie and Mattie want a pontoon or a deck boat,  and I want the TX.  I will continue to finish the boat,  but if someone wants it sooner it can be bought unfinished.  Price will depend on where I am with it when it sells.  :smile18: :smile18: :smile18:

We saw this coming....lol. A TX is difficult to let sit while working on another boat.

'toons rock and are great for the family.

The Kona is still being worked on and should be ready for the water in a few weeks . But I am not going to try to keep two jet boats and the TX19 will be the keeper . I already have everything to do the glass work and paint on the TX19 , but really want to build a nice LS motor for it and only have a handfull of the parts for it . If the Kona does sell it will not really take much time at all to get the TX put together , but if it doesn't sell it will take awhile to piece together the parts to get the TX19 on the water . I really am fine either way , but hopefully I will get to play with the Kona for awhile before it sells and then sell it about the time the paint and glass is done on the TX19 .

Crappy cell phone pics from the outing yesterday

Shannon, You need to get some good pics of that thing out in the sun.

 

[spd500]

In the outside pics you can see the reflection of the clouds in the sky.  It is really hard to get good pics of the paint, but it looks really good.

 

[ChryslerJet]

Shannon looks real good hope you get to enjoy all your hard work before it sells.

Well , I got outbid at the last second on the gauges that I thought I was going to be buying  :smile19: I was the high bidder for a week and had bid really high on them , but got outbid the last two seconds of the auction  whatever.gif

Dang Snipers
Need an antisniper gun

Shannon next time let me know maybe i can keep an eye on it

 

[spd500]

I was watching it  crazy.gif I was the only bidder until 2 seconds before the auction ended , then someone snuck in a sniper bid on me . I guess I am just going to order a set of new gauges from Hardin Marine and be done with it . I have every single part to put the boat in the water now , except for the gauges . No more time to screw with fleabay trying to find a deal , I want to go to the river .

Man you are sooo close.  I'd find someone local to help you tune it before you switch to a carb.

 

[Crusader]

Have you thought about. Allying a company like Mercury marine and ask them how they tune theirs??

 

[spd500]

His is completely different . Mercury is really close to a stock motor , his is modified .

Not to mention Mercury does not use a computer out of a Tahoe.

 

[blazeracer]

Was just saying. That would be the easy way out. There's no chance of my carb'ing that thing at this point. EFI all the way baby. Once I get this figured out I'm gonna start charging for it. LOL
