[QUOTE="nomowork, post: 300649, member: 6029"] You're $300 ahead of mine when I bought my tin. I actually had to show up with two new tires and rims as it was sitting for about twenty years, uncovered! First thing I did was start both motors that came with it. They both ran, one really good (4hp) and the other not so good (18 hp) so sold both for $275. After a bad experience with a bad trailer hub (wheel almost fell off) on another boat, I just replaced the axle and hubs with brand new units which only cost about $100. The cleaning and grinding of the hull was mostly sweat equity but the major expense was the brand new four stroke Honda. I'm on my third year now and it runs with no problems. Good luck on your project! [/QUOTE]
