A friend and I purchased this boat together in the mid seventies.(High School) We sold it in the early eighties and I had not seen it for 20 years when it showed up for sale at our Correct Craft dealer in Angola IN. Still had the same EP Skis key chain we used in 75. It was a mess but solid. Started restoration last summer. Goal is to return it to original condition. Totally re gelcoated, all chrome replated, and new windshield custom made to replace cracked original. Also found original JUNK #3 trailer which has been returned to like new condition. Even has moon hubcaps and full loading equipment.
Engine is next project followed by interior. Thanks to all for help with questions.
UPDATE 11/09:
Engine installed this summer and runs great. Splash rails next. We are going to try to remake original wood. Anybody with photos showing cross section and dimensions greatly appreciated. Interior and speedos also on "to do’ list.
