Freedomflyer 1,881 Posted March 8, 2020 (edited) Looks awesome shade!!!! Nice job! I have neither the time, knowledge, nor patience to do that. So.....much to your chagrin I have to buy shiny machines. This should be delivered to me by the middle of the month. If not then, the 1st week of April.

Freedomflyer 1,881 Posted March 8, 2020 That 350 does look very cool and Scott I would agree it probably is every bit as good as new. Is that another one in the back next to the Waverunner except red? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Notice the 300 says "Lower Price" so I would think that would mean the 350 was more expensive. That would mean MORE than $7500 in today's money 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
