Hi Kevin,

Just for the record, I mean no disrespect to you or your boat.

My advice, whilst not knowing the asking price, was intended to offer advice as to what price I would be looking to pay and how I would bargain down if the price was too high for my liking.

In all truth, the purchaser is always looking for a way to screw the price down as much as they can. Not being class legal gives more opportunity to do this. When buying or selling it pays to be ruthless. Buyer tries to bargain down as much as he can and in turn the seller will try to get the maximum for his sale. Of course sometimes the two may never reach an agreement they are both willing to accept. Therefore, no sale or no sail.

I also agree with Macca. Would be more advantageous to experiment with a faster shape or may be add high profile dagger boards.

I understand you did this too save time and money, and good on you for it. If you wished you could incorporate other mods such as high profile dagger boards. You have already done this with the strikerless front beam.

Good luck with any future mods or projects and please keep us all posted on them..... Very interesting stuff.

I have in the past spent $$$$$$ on modifying cars including a tough Australian 1977 Ford Coupe running 351 (5.8 ltr) menthol fueled V8, Top loader gear box, 9 inch diff and plenty off go fast goodies.

I also lost bucket loads when selling them (and expected too).

I would like to own an old 1932 ford rod (3 window) or 28 T bucket one day. Might save this for my mid life crisis. . But instead of building one I would probably buy one as I have been left a little deflated after projects I have put blood sweat and tears into have been damaged by brain dead idiots on the road or car parks

This dose not mean I'd never tinker with it as that is too much too ask from any street enthusiast.

I respect someone greatly for having the guts and determination to produce something like this. But I am also talking from a buyers point of view.

If I had the time, money and skills, I would be the first to engage in such projects.
