1973 CC V20 vs 1995 V20 steplift

[onthefly]

Hey guys!

I am about to repower my 1973 cc V20. I have a sweat deal going for a leftover 2005 Johnson 140 4 stroke--Fully installed for 9000.00 includes prop, wiring harness, tach, controls, will utilize my steering and hook up to my gas tank. but first I have to close my transom and install a bracket, and I have other minor crap to do.

Then I saw a 1995 step V20 with a Yamaha 200TXRT - real clean-canvas cover canvas bimini top double axel trailer (ok condition) GARMIN120 GPS,ScITEX CVS106 FISH FINDER,VHF RADIO,RITCHIE COMPASS,SS PROP. It,s already got a closed stern from the factory...
Around 10,500.00

What to do? I do love my center console but there is always work to do....
