    Good find !!
    They are getting to be more and more harder to come by.

    Just had to add the first part to it. http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/rd...547329028.html
    Its a 1957 or 1958 missing the helm glass windshields and all the cabin plex.

    I have one that is more complete that is free if anyone is interested. It does need full
    restoration.
    The one I have used to have a 4 cylinder OMC I/O in it. (Fast)

    I take that back. Looks as the black and white one might be a 20 footer. No mention on how the wood is. In order for the wood to be good, she would have had to be stored inside most of her life......

        Its mine now! I had to step up and rescue this one from the crusher. It is in fact a 17 footer, surprising going from the 20 to the 17, you suddenly feel like a giant. Transom does need work. Im also guessing a 58. Stay tuned !

            Just removed the transom garden. Let the build begin! Easy to see how the water wicked up from the keel, and around the bolt holes and eventually rotted out the whole transom over the dormant years. Very easy removal with a sawzall and chisel. New transom to be fully encased in fibreglass, maybe it will last another 50 years!
            Will be looking/building a shorter 1 piece windshield for the "slammed" look.
            Anyone need the original upper windshield frame? [ATTACH]16555[/ATTACH][ATTACH]16556[/ATTACH][ATTACH]16557[/ATTACH]
