  2. Check out you tube Merlinsoldschoolgarage.com or fabrats.com They did one like that from lake Powell and got it running and gave it back to the owners who lost it 20 years ago

  3. IMHO it's certainly not too late for it to serve as a kitty litter box!!!

  4. Never under estimate a determined man with time and money. Look at some of the restorations done on airplanes, boats, cars & trucks over the years.

  5. Missing some parts. And the rest are probably pretty rust pitted if not totally ruined. So, no- not too far gone, as long as you have a metric shit ton of money to blow on it.

  6. Looks like a Ford fe series. Maybe heads are salvageable.

  7. Depends on how much money you want to spend, we've rebuilt worse. Got a nice blower motor sitting in the corner of the shop that'll drop right in. But then you'll have a flat bottom, loud, over powered boat that ain't much fun unless you like doing rooster tails.

    1. Like the guys that modify their Ruger 10 22s.They take a $225 rifle replace every damn thing on it with custom parts ($) and end up with a $7500 beauty. What's original? Well, he still has the box.
