Great looking hydro! Gotta love these old boats. No real set date to finish. Just work on it when I can. Trying like heck to get this trailer done though. Converted "v" trailer to flatty style. Not fun. Shortened too fit in the garage also! Little anxious to see how the boat fits on it, in the garage. And see how it pulls with the boat. Just took out 9". But shifted the bow pretty close to the hitch.
Hey Mike, look on transom under were the top rudder support is to see if has a HIN ..sure looks alot like the Kindsvater hydro i have back in Florida.....look at the deck lines on mine and yours....as well the small bubble on front of deck between the sponsons....
I am restoring my shovel trailer now! will be finishing a 70 shovel soon and getting ready for both to paint in a couple months.Sorry dont mean to jack the thread.
No ones jacking anything, its good to hear from everyone. Anyone ever seen technical drawings for a Shovelnose? I am a Project Manager / Design Engineer at work and would love to have something to frame on my wall.
let us both show our progress together as we do these builds if you don't mind. I can post pic's very soon as to what i have done to my trailer and hull Trailer nearing paint as I have stripped to bare origional surface of trailer! P.M me!
509 Big Block full roller.
mmm, pretty.
exciting.
Now that its getting spring, I can drag out the trailer and sand, smooth and paint. Then the boat.
Any suggestions as to what type of paint to use?
Looking for a Cloyes 2 piece timing cover. anyone?
