    Nice, I love bringing the old boats back to life. Way more character than the new ones. I have an old Ranger that I am doing that to.

    Man Mr. Joe, that looks really, really good. I know y’all but a lot of time into her and it shows. Outstanding!! The diamond pattern seats have such are such a cool look. Now if you just knew a good Mercury man to get an engine installed for you……������
