Well guys, I guess I need to finish this thing up. As of 5:30 on Tuesday after Easter I haven't got the motor mounted back on yet. That is scheduled for this Saturday morning. Holidays with family over has slowed the process. I did however take the boat to a local fab shop and thry made the aluminum bracket to cover the transom. I know some of you would have just sanded and painted and not worried about the cap, but I wasn't comfortable with my finishing skills with glass. I set out to have an OEM look and I think I will accomplish that when all is said and done. I'm not that happy with the cap - its made out of thick material and id didn't fit as well as the original. I had to use alot of 5200, silicone and some big screws go hold it down, but she's not going anywhere. Hell, its just a transom cap - the motor will cover most of it.
I'll post a final pic when I get the 175 back on.
