so, its that time of year........

When I start buying skis off craigslist for stupid prices!!!! When i say stupid, I mean it. Here is my story for the first one of the year. Called on a couple 440s, and the guy said they were 1000cc waverunners!!! I knew they were 440 or 550s by the pics. He wanted 300 obo. While talking to him, I Told him I wouldnt leave Indy to get them for anything more than 150. he said he would take 150. I got there, and was pretty bummed to see they were in very poor shape. I Told him 50 bucks is all i could do. He took the 50 and i took the skis.

The ski with the Numbers had a ton of aftermarket which i am going to part and sell. here are some pics....not bad for $50

I saw those on Bloomingtons, and was going to pick them up. Really just didn't have room to store them. When I saw the billet bilge I knew something was up. So what aftermarket parts are in it.

Re: so, its that time of year........

i think the paint was sweet.....actually it was stickers.

oceanpro plate
r&d scoop grate
bars
mariner waterbox
kerkerpipe
fingerthrottle
head
exhaust mani
3 different carbs
billet nose brace
im sure there was a ton more.... that i cant think of right now.

and 2 completely locked up motors!!! rusted cylinder walls...junk. but worth 50 buck for the parts!!!!

Also had to be the shadiest place i have ever been. super sketchy, and nowhere near bloomington.!

No.I'm not interested in doing that. The hulls are not in great condition.
