Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shandogg" data-source="post: 333614" data-attributes="member: 13008">Got a pretty good buy on an 83' Suzuki 9.9 again off of craigslist.  Bought all the couplings for the gas tank and sat around perplexed for quite some time.  Turns out I had an 87' gas tank and once again had to buy all new fittings, but it's working like a champ now.  Also got a 40# thrust bow mount trolling motor off my dads buddy who said it was a lost cause.  Did some trouble-shooting and bought a new foot control off E-bay and had a perfectly good troller for minimal Cost.  If you look close at the pic you'll see I put a new Oak transom in.  I plyed together 3 pieces of 1/4" oak and then put on 3 coats of fiberglass resin over the top.  I think it should hold up nicely.  Also Rhino-lined the interior and started a deck.<img src="https://i43.tinypic.com/292sew3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Well.... I guess I missed a step or 2.  Sorry about that, I have all sorts of cross Framing and it's level.  Also ran 2 conduits as the battery is going in the Bow.  When I take it back apart to put a ton of foam underneath I'll post a pic of how I framed it out.<img src="https://i39.tinypic.com/ff1qwm.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="https://i40.tinypic.com/o9ogg4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="https://i40.tinypic.com/xd72gn.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
