If you're a typical gear head, you always want to have something to work on, don't you? Here's Art's latest project? How about an ex-Grand National Rayson-Craft. Art bought this boat and has spent a lot of time just cleaning everything up at this point. Motivation will come form a 1300 horsepower, supercharged 509 Chevy. A top  speed  well into the triple digits should be no problem.

Here's the boat when Art first brought it home.

Below are some more initial pictures. The interior required some serious sanding and hole plugging. A lot of heavy hardware was removed, most will be replaced.

This stuff weighed in at over 120 pounds! When he replaces it with custom light weight parts, it'll be down to about 40 pounds.

Here's a little example of Art's detail work, a part of the steering linkage he cleaned up on the mill.
