Re: 23 Diesel inboard Seacraft Custom and MINT!

Re: engine question 2bbl or 4bbl carb

Re: Here We Go Again

Re: SeaCraft Full Armstrong Bracket

I wondered about that too.

I've found that people throw the name Armstrong around generically like calling a soda a Coke.

Or worse yet. Bearing Buddies. :(

Re: Imron Touch Up (or not)

Imron can be spotted in. It's blended to the other paint.

Re: sanding around corners question

A piece of straight radiator hose works very well. Wipe it down with laq thinner first to clean it. Then use stick-it paper on it. It will conform to many radius's.

Been using that since the '70's.
