You want one? I'm going down later this week to change out a fuel pump in one. And it's for sale!

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

yes and no.
hell yes but dont need another headache right now.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

If it had a trailer I be all over it!!

Rip that motor out, add a twin bracket with twin 200's be a real machine!!

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

Well the one I'm going down to work on sits on a nice tandem axle aluminum trailer, and is sporting a 260HP small block chivy. These LUHRS need a V-drive to perform worth a crap though, there to bow heavy. The one I'm going down to work on origanally had a 351 FORD, and I repowered it for him to the CHEVY. But on the test run I had to get everybody to stand in the back. With everybody sitting in the seats up front it would pull off 13 knots WOT, move people back and it would run 23 knots WOT. BIG DIFFERENCE!

i think it needs a big old diesel and a little elbow grease.
now thats a vessel.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

she's an animal alright! looks like that brown snake that was playin peek-a-boo with my but crack the other day. hard to believe that luhrs would create such a pile.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

I agree CTT, looks like road kill allright ;D

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

They're a heavy built tank from back in the day. LUHRS didn't always build these bootiful sport fisherman and luxury yachts, LUHRS used to be just like everybody else at one time building ugly purpose built fishing boats. The hull on these 25's I was told is around 1" thick.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

I like it. It would be a super fishing boat.

If it's not rotted you could get it going for $6-8K. That's the down payment on a new boat of that size.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

How much is it?

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

I'll ask him, but he's a FRENCH ***. He will azzrape anybody if he can.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

well i guess there are those of us (the beautiful people) who see a beautiful old classic thats built like a tank, with the potential to be a great big water fish boat.
on the other hand there are a few who (have taste in their ***) see a tired old junker with no potential.

BUT. . . . .

how anybody can sit there (gay or not) and call this boat ugly (jackasses) simply escapes me.
you guys (are morons) better take another look.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

well, i would defend my position ctt but, i dont wanna anger you anymore. i realize that the tuff guy image you project is only to hide ur soft, sensetive inner child! and that ur feelings are easily hurt. so, i'll stop here before i get you madder than a pervert with paulsy tryin to open a condom wrapper.

let it out bro... just let it out.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

I don't care who you are, that was funny ;D

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

actually i didnt find it the least bit humorous.
i guess humor is regional.
as for my image, image is nothing.
this is all me.
you cant anger me brother.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

chuck this boat is 20 min from my house if ya want me to go ck it out for ya......
and Iam only offering cause you are beautiful man :o

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

thanks anyway splinter.
the old lady would have my nuts.
i got a few projects going right now and this one would be a major undertaking.
maybe a couple years down the road.
i wanna get mine in the water first.

friday morning and i WILL post pictures.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

madder than a pervert with paulsy tryin to open a condom wrapper... how could you not think that is funny? how about madder than a one legged waitress workin at the I.H.O.P.? comon, admit it, you at least smiled at that one. right?

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

my friend it aint easy to make me smile.
and that aint no act.
nope, sorry.
what else ya got?

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

How about an invite to the PLAYBOY MANSION, BUT your JOHN BOBBIT.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

Or suffer from TURRETS while trying to get some with her parents in the next room.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

Better slap a couple etecs on there - 80 gallon fuel tank will get you out past the breakers if you're lucky. ;D

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

naw, all she needs is a big deisel and a bladder tank for those big runs.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

A 6V53 would do nicely for that one. If your gonna go with a classic hull, you might as well go with a classic diesel ;D.

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

I see lots of potential there...but 1st thing I'd do is pull the motor and add some fuel capacity...boat that size ain't goin' far on 80 gals fuel, no matter how powered ... double the fuel capacity, bracket and twin 150 (+) E-Tecs or Zukes and now we talkin' ;) ...

Re: THIS THING. . . . . . .
 

Well I asked my buddy what he wants for his, and he's smokin crack or somethin. He wants $21,000 for it without a trailer, $25,000 with the tri-axle trailer. He's so far out there on the price I didn't even take pictures for you's guys.
