[QUOTE="russ010, post: 54121, member: 677"] you're on the right start.. and I'm pretty sure that in a couple of years I'll be fishing in it with you. Of course you know I'll help in any way I can. You know, as much as you buy from your scrap yard (I know they carry/order new material as well)... you might be able to talk to them about hooking you up with some pieces at a discounted price when you tell them what your plans are. You can also ask for sponsorship - definitely helps with cost, only thing is you might have to put some kind of advertisement on your boat. I've done sponsorships in the past with 4x4 rebuilds and have gotten a lot of parts free from companies - just had to put a sticker on my build. When I redid that suzuki side kick, I totalled it up - Total Cost to rebuild - 8900, Cost out of my pocket - 1300. A lot of people told me I couldn't put a 350 chevy block in a suzuki, raise suspension 12", raise body 3" and put 35 Super Swamper TSWs on it... but I proved them wrong and paid next to nothing to prove it.
