 Topic: 70 Wildcat project.....Posted: June-10-2009 at 1:13am |

Just throwing this out there ....I have a 70 Wildcat project hull with lots of loose parts....not sure what I want to do with it right now? ... Sell? / Part? / or just put it back in the barn?
Hull has been painted red by PO. Deck is sanded and needs paint. Has the "wrap-around" style bucket seats, 318/Velvet Drive combo, etc. Im just trying to free up some space around here.. ( Pam's suggestion  )

Hello,
I would consider anything you have. I am trying to rebuild my '68 Wildcat and may wish to use your hull and any parts you have left over. It could very possibly be in better shape than mine. I don't know where you are in the country but there is most always a way to get it home. Please let me know. Thanks, Rich 330-730-8329 |

Steve, you've got to post pics of these gems when you bring them home. Nothing is too rough for me.

Mike, There are no Wildcat emblems.. dont see any place on the dash that ever had them. Im hoping to sell the whole hull and parts as a project. The 318/Velvet drive could be optional.. Im planning to keep the trailer. |

Steve,
I had asked you about your '70 Wildcat with the thought of using the drivetrain and parts from my '68 Wildcat to finish the project. We talked on the phone in mid June. This is contrary to your objective but ... it turns out that I am putting my Wildcat project up for sale and wondred if you were interested? I have removed the foam, stripped the fiberglass from the stringers and found a small about 8" section of the main port side stringer about 3' from the transom that has some rot. The boat is mostly original except the hull was painted black. All of the gauges are original and work, the seats are original but I believe had been re-upholstered a long time ago and it has an ugly Correct Craft trailer. Rich |

Rich,
Probably not interested myself, distance would be a problem. Plus, my wife thinks Ive already got too many projects.

Update.... Ive had few inquiries on individual parts from the Wildcat. If I do get rid of it, I'd really prefer to sell the complete hull with all the shown hardware as a package. However, if enough interest, I may consider selling parts. So....any interest?
