"Gentleman,

I am restoring


"Gentleman,

I am restoring 1973 25' Carver with OMC 225/stringer drive. The motor is rusted tight and outdrive has sat for 15 yrs. I know a guy who wants to repower his sled and has a 1978 280 volvo Penta with a Chev 350 that were both rebuilt a few years ago. They are visually clean and he ran the boat last week end. he thinks the package is worth $2000-2500. Is this a good move for me and will it even fit the big hole. Thanks."
 
"Best thing you could possibly

"Best thing you could possibly do!!! You'll have to glass the transom back up but that's not that hard or have a glass guy do it.
If you get the WHOLE package, that's a deal. Make sure you get EVERYTHING, shift box to the prop."
