    Checkmate Powerboats to be Dissolved

    Checkmate Interiors I hope they have fun building the wood or plastic parts of the interior.Because I have been laid off for the past month. Dean knows nothing about putting a interior together. Thinks that he does but there is a difference. I was building them for the last 30 plus years...

    Restoration price?

    Boat Transoms, Floors & Stringers Too bad I'm not a little closer. I've probably put in 2,000 or 3,000 transoms stringers and floors. I have done all of CHKs restore work also for last 26 years. Also done most of the wood or plastics for interiors. So I know I could do it. I could I could I could

    Flakes

    I might start experimenting with My Firebird hood. White base with alpha jewel flake then a bunch of clear on top. Might look good as long as it doesn't turn yellow with the clear on top.

    Even More CL Finds!

    That's not far from where I used to live. There was a dealership on I 45 that I applied for a job at in 1976. Never went back after I started building homes. I've got a friend that lives near there. He might go and look at it if someone wants to know about it. He does not know a lot about boats...

    Personally I have only been to 1 boat show. I was at the Chicago Boat Show in 1976. We took 2 tractor trailer rigs full of the other brand that used to be in Bucyrus to show.
