Hi all

I'm alive and well lurking in the background. Everyone's on the right track.

I made a DVD of how the original interiors were made. Wonder if we could get the club to host it so that all could watch.

Best regards and Happy New Year!

I have all the proof you want. the answer is all walnut stain. Now that I'm no longer on the board I am free to express. this subject has been covered many times. It has been seen many times on original dash panels that a walnut overstain was applied to the dash rather haphazardly to boot. I could s...

Bjorn;

I have all that stuff. Call me

Paul Cundiff is your guy.

Anyone out there boat on Lake Norman? Just wondering what the Classic Boat scene is like on the lake

thanks

Matt;

That is ridiculous !!! You need to have a word with your local postmaster

After many years of being down www.barrelback.com is now back up thanks to Matt Byrne.

It can be a great resource for anyone interested in Barrel Backs. Some of the info is out dated and I will work to bring it up to today's knowledge base.

Best regards

Keith;

I think we have to take a look inside the Admin panel to see what the setting are. I'm on other forums and they have auto-save features. I will admit it takes some time just to figure out where things actually go.

Matt Byrne, you have any ideas on this?

Thanks

Ha! not a chance. Still putting boat together. I got sidetracked by a couple of Corvettes

Jim;

Thanks for posing that. Very cool. Here is one back for you.

Al; You are a gentleman for sure. I assure everyone that no one has put in more consistent time into the CCABC than Al over the last 3-4 years. Al is the guy behind the membership curtain and makes the day to day operations possible. It's been a pleasure serving with him. I feel like I've been away ...

Thanks;

You see the drone vid??

Watch in 1080p and at 5:31 you can see me standing out on a I-beam shooting the exact cover image from my vantage point. Pretty cool!!!

Mine showed up in Southern California today. Some may think the cover is photoshopped, but trust me, it is not! Hey Brian, just curious about your statement. What about the photo would make you think of that? Position of the boats? I liked the interesting angle of the boats so went with that pic. v...

I have the full manuals and documents but they are in paper form.

Fantastic Matt!!!

It deserves a really cool engine for sure.

Glad it helped Dave.

Ask for Gary and use my name. They know me and the old boats well. Remind him of the double cover with the inner flannel type material. I'm sure it is available if they give you the proper name.

Post some pics

More great boats listed on www.tradingdock.org

Check them out!!!!!

Doug. I respectfully ask that you allow a reasonable amount of time for Jim and others to respond. How quickly we forget that the Club operated for nearly 40 years without ANY kind of membership election. Last year was our first and I am personally proud that we got this function of the Board going....

Thanks. Here is the easy way. Orange button at the top takes you to main page www.chris-craft.org and log in. Then go to Membership Services at the top. A drop down will show Past Brass Bell's. Click on that. Then go to Winter 2009, page 16

Enjoy

Don

Someone call Matt Smith. Got to get the word out so that someone will save this incredible craft!!!

That is where we are heading!!! Thanks

All. Don't forget to check www.tradingdock.org often. New stuff being put up for sale all the time!!

I called the guy on this one and he is going to check dates for me tonight.

Thanks

Don, This is just minutes from me if you would like me to take a look at it. I could also possibly pick it up and store it for a short time if need be. Not sure about the price, but it is exactly what you are looking for. PM me or call if you think it could work. I'm 30 miles north of Cincinnati, O...

Do you need exactly that block number for originality reasons? There are a number of 2 bolt 327 and 350 block numbers that should be interchangeable. http://www.nastyz28.com/sbchevy/sblock.html Also, I think you need to tell us what you are putting it in and post some pictures. Matt. I was looking ...

I'm hoping you have a block casting that ends in 870. Then look on the other side for the actual casting date.
Example A- 10-4 = Jan 10th 1964 etc

Early F would be what I am looking for, just a good block

Thanks;

I'm looking for a block

Anyone have an old 327 for rebuild??
