CHRIS CRAFT CAVALIER

HI, UP FOR SALE TODAY IS MY VERY ROUGH CHRIS CRAFT CAVALIER PROJECT. THIS IS A TRUE INBOARD WITH A FOUR CYLINDER GRAY MARINE ENGINE. I THINK THE BOAT IS ABOUT A 1955. THE ENGINE IS A SEA SCOUT 91 THAT DATES TO 1946. THE ENGINE IS A LITTLE TO SMALL AND OLD SO I WOULD ASSUME THE ENGINE IS NOT CORRECT. I HAVE AN EXTRA GRAY MARINE MODEL 70 I MIGHT PART WITH FOR SOME EXTRA $$$. WOULD BE ABOUT THE RIGHT VINTAGE AND SIZE ENGINE FOR THE BOAT :) THE SEA SCOUT THAT IS IN THE BOAT IS FREE AND HAS COMPRESSION BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND PULLING IT OUT AND REMOVING THE OIL PAN AS SOME A**HOLE STOLE THE DISTRIBUTOR AND A MOUSE WENT DOWN THE HOLE AND BUILT A NEST. I CLEANED MOST OF IT OUT OF THERE, BUT THERE IS STILL SOME LEFT THAT I COULD NOT REACH. I WAS GOING TO TRY AND GET THE ENGINE STARTED. I BORROWED THE DISTRIBUTOR FROM THE MODEL 70. NOT INCLUDED. I DID NOT TRY TO START THE ENGINE AS I NEVER GOT TO PULLING THE OIL PAN. THE HULL SKIN NEEDS TO BE REDONE IN PLACES. IMHO THE MAIN STRUCTURE IS STILL SOLID BUT SOME MAYBE ALL OF THE PLYWOOD NEEDS REPLACED. TRAILER WILL ROLL BUT IT IS ROTTED AND NOT ROAD WORTHY. I BROUGHT THIS IN ON A 16 FOOT ROLLBACK. TRAILER AND ALL. LOTS OF STARES. LOL I HAVE SOME PAPERWORK ON THIS. THIS IS A NON COMPLETE PROJECT BOAT AND WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. BOAT AND TRAILER ONLY! TRUCK NOT INCLUDED! I AS GOING TO FIX IT BUT I JUST CAN'T GET TO IT. PLEASE HELP SAVE THIS PIECE OF MARINE HISTORY. SHE DESERVES SO MUCH BETTER. EMAIL OR CALL WITH NEEDS. THANK YOU, DON phone.
