Congrats to Lil' Kenny on the find, good looking boat.

If that is the original transom, it looks to me that the boat came from the factory to be rigged with twins, or a 30" single. Boats set up for a 25" single have an knotch in the center.

BTW, we had a 1970 Dart when I was a kid.

Don, you're right, those old V-2 compressors would shake and rattle but they were bulletproof and would run forever. Bet you didn't know they used that SAME compressor in the home A/C units! I've been thru the Chrysler Airtemp plant in Dayton and was amazed to see them putting that same compressor, driven by an electric motor, inside a hermetically sealed can and installed in the 2-3 ton package units just like the one originally in my house! Most folks don't realize how much capacity is in a car ac unit, but a full size car is typically at least 3 tons or more! (Big heat load + no insulation = big cooling requirement!)

Amen on that. Pure cheese.

Bones, with that big black porn star of a motah pushing that transom to the point of no return, I think Kenny will be a very happy young man. Great buy.

Those stripes are pretty tacky! The way Tracker built most of them was fortunately much better than those stripes indicated.

Ken-Congrats to Kenny! Great looking boat. Once again, your theory of how to raise kids right proves itself.....87 should be a tank with hardly any spider cracks in the gelcoat. The finished Sceptre will be a great useable project for him!
