Larry,
Im checking with the friend that knew of the boat. He's going to try and get me the mechanics phone number that worked on it. It supposedly had 700 bucks worth of tranny work done around 3 years ago. I'll let you know what I find. |

Al,
Glad the rings worked! Larry, I did talk to the mechanic that worked on the boat.. he said the trans has less than an hours run time.(probably 10 - 15 minutes) About three years ago, just after installation, the owner didnt get the boat winterized,and the block cracked. Im not 100% sure I want to get rid of it, do you need it for one of your boats? |

Steve,
You keep it. My need is not pressing, just accumulating parts for a project I want to take on sometime in the future. I have the time and patience right now to hold out for those rare exceptional deals. "One of my boats...?" Who do think I am? TRBenj? I am afraid I am one of those dying breeds of being a one boat owner....not that I dont have a few on my wish list. |

Larry,
Didnt know if you had somethng "new" in the works? I saw on your web site (pretty cool BTW) you'd also like a cracker box someday. Hey, Are the graghics on your Tique original? They are very clean looking! My first boat was a 76 Ski Tique. It was red trimmed and had the "larger" graphic, like the liturate shows. |

Yup, Steve, that's it. Been toying with the idea of building one for years, just dont have the time or money. But I figure if I accumulate parts, some day I'll be ready to go with it. Been staring at the Glen-L plans for years but that really isnt what I want. Then I found a source of "real" c-box plans out west. Not looking for a racing calibre project (dont have the $ for a motor thats going to turn 8-10,000 like the real ones...since I am only on the lookout for a $300 motor off Craigslist for it.....Someday
Graphics are not original. I didnt think they were since the boat has been repainted, but one CCFan told me he thought some nautiques and ski tiques came from the factory with that style graphic. I asked Dave and he checked with Mr. Ralph who said nope, not original. Whoever repainted the boat did a very good job with the stripes and graphics, so although not original are nice, and unique without being goofy. |

Larry,
Sounds like what I want to do... Build the "race-look" cracker, but have a gear box, etc, so you can actually have it "user friendly". I know of one in a barn,(original flathead) that was built in the 50's and hasnt been in the water for over 20 years. The old guy will never use it, but doesnt want to sell it either. Ive got a 283, ready to be put together. Also have a tripower marine intake, aluminum "Cal-Custom" exhaust manifolds, etc ......ahhhh, like you say...someday. Your Ski-Tique graphics remind me of the Mustang"s of that vintage... very subtle , but nice. |
