Parting out another 80 model Nautique

Sorry guys....it's all gone. I sold the whole package.

How about the observers seat, its 2 mounting rails and 4 thumb screw wheels shipped to Mullins S.C. 29574 to a business address ? Try me at abctowing29574@bellsouth.net , Thanks Keith

Jeff,

What about that port side vent window? Do you have it?

Thanks,

Donald

Jeff, Got the box of gauges, tach and speedo. All arrived safely; Now to plug and play. Thanks, Todd

Yes, my 80 vent windows do have the two holes. One for the adjustment arm and one for the locking handle deal.

Do you still have the 351w And is it in good shape?

Looking for at least heads and maybe long block.

Let me know.

The side vent window has two holes. From what I can find on here....that's an 80 model.   The 81 only had one hole. So I'm inclined to agree Tim.

No stamping on it. So maybe not a classic. Doesn't matter much...there is no interior in it. I think about the only other real difference in the 80 and 81 was in the side windows for the most part.

I'm not confused about the HIN scheme but the certification thing in and of itself is confusing. From what I've read, it means that the hull was certified in DEC. of 80....which would have to be an 81 but it could also mean that the hull was certified in DEC. of the 80 model year or essentially DEC. of 79. Which is why I'm asking. Everything I'm finding on the web says...it's an 81. But....there are few fiberglass boats that are more restored than Correct Crafts....Chris Craft, maybe Century....so I figure the most likely people to know are on here.

UPDATE:

Looking at the brochure, that is definitely an 81 model Classic in the brochure because the interior is different. That doesn't mean that CC didn't pick a few of the 80 models off line for the brochure and update later.

Tim....the date code on the back is M80E. If I'm not mistaken that makes it an 81 model built Dec. of 80. I looked in the brochures in the ref section and the Classic had that same transponder in the 81 brochure. Have I missed something?

A little more research and I think I misread the date code on this Nautique. I forgot that they changed the coding in 1984. The last for digits of the HIN are M80E. I believe that makes this an 81 model and judging from the brochures in the reference, it appears to be a Classic by looking at the gauge cluster. There is no interior in this boat save for the motor cover box.

Here are some pics of the transom and swim deck. It's in pretty fair shape for its age. Definitely worth saving. Should clean up pretty well. As for whether or not they will work on the 77 Tique, my guess is that the brackets are essentially the same. However the beam on the Nautique is about 6" wider I believe.

Tim is the man that would know. Any word on that Tim? I hope you received your rudder by the way. Pulling the gauges for your uncle Todd is my theme of the day.
