This is a pictorial account of my 1983 Lund American Super Pike restoration and upgrades. There were two intermittent upgrades that I have skipped to get to this most recent completion. This includes new carpet, particle board changed to oak, a reconfigured dashboard, new live well and new seats. There are many more pictures but hope these are enough to give you an idea of what all has been done.

Thanks everyone. This is why I changed my handle to one old boat for two. My wife and I spend a lot of time in it from early spring to late fall.

To keep it simple I stayed with the r & p though some days I feel it. I have even stayed with the 2 stroke, having put a new power head on it and taking off the oil pump. It started on the second hit after the winter storage.

This is my second boat to rescue from the salvage. I thought I would have sold this one by now but we enjoy it too much to get another one for now. It gives an old man something to do all winter. My wife gets a little gun shy when I B.O.A.T. (Break Out Another Thousand)
