I purchased a 1972 Tahiti from him last year in Texas and I wanted to show him what the restoration of the boat is like. Anyone here know him? Here is a picture of him and his Picklefork that he bought after I bought his boat.

If you remember, this was his boat before I bought it.

Right now it's getting rebuilt. (More performance items on it.) I wanted to see if he had some specs on it. Thanks!
Is this the same David Hobbs that has a Honda dealership in Milwaukee? He also does announcing for CART?

I'm trying to determine wear and whether it's worth it or not to get it rebuilt. Thanks!

It's a relief to know that at least somebody knew what I was smoking.
