This is the only picture of it I have now that I think of it. Doesn't show the sides but its a deep vee hull that runs about 60mph. Its a Formula 330SS with twin 496's I like the boat, don't love it.
The commercial Porsche uses..." There is no substitute " They are right !!!

Not bad man! You guys have so much water around there it is fun to have. Boats here are really worthless. What they call lakes are ponds back there

Tim,
Good job on the headlight washers... very subtle but nice difference. Have you also considered having them shoot the flat-black "under-door" and rear bumper gizmos in body color? Then use clear bra on them. I didn't do this, and wish I did (rear bumper is done, not the under door gizmos). Again, subtle but cool.

Thats what started this. Wanted the under door rockers, rear bumper and all bumperetts painted body color. Those parts made the rest of the car look lame
The few rust spots were all surface rust and the car goes to primer and paint tomorrow

AndyT,
As I understand the operation, removing rain gutters is pretty painful. You have to grind off about 2 inches, weld, then do 2 more inches. This is because the rain gutters actually crimp the top to the sides, and the entire car will "fall apart" if you just grind them off. So, yes, Rufus still has the rain gutters. And yes, those are newly-added Ruf mirrors. And thanks.
