I back yard built a many of them like that.
Total outlay for the "inframe" build, around $500 + or -

My thoughts exactly...

unfortunately sunshine, I do not have some of the required tools and equipment to do so. I would have to turn it over to a professional shop. If I had a solid income right now I would give it a shot.

Don, I am looking at dates (assuming I buy the two trucks), it would be about a month to 6 weeks before I can get them off the property.

General consensus is: Scrap the 327, put in the 350. 327 is too likely to have too much damage or (knowing me) it will be a money pit. Trailer both home, (13hrs of driving time or therabouts) and part the 88 out.

Concrete shoes will do the trick.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Home from the farm. Moved some hay around so dad will stay off the hay pile....hopefully.

Some of our soon to be new governors followers were out celebrating this afternoon. Got some pictures of the party.......God Save the Queen!

Hmmm.......23' boat, a couple of yards of rope, two bags of concrete and some nylon netting secured to concrete. Boat out to 20+ miles, just west of the South Pile should do - 750' of water, and lots of crabs. Be sure to insert "items" into nylons bags so when they start to fall apart they won't float free. Deposit said items over side of boat. Return to dock.

Naw, there are ways to handle that..... USCG recording the trip over the bar might be a problem though.
