96 SPX and 96 XP build

[OneShotDeal]

I finally found a couple projects for the winter. I picked up a 96 XP that is currently a shell with boxes of parts and a 96 SPX that just needs to be cleaned up and the motor put back in. I am usually a car guy but with limited garage space I'm trying a couple of these for me and my wife. Here's the starting pics and I'll post updates as they come.

So I haven't done too much but I have the XP stripped and it just needs a final polish. I recoved the seat but I don't like the yellow and it will be redone. The hood will be changed to a 95 spx with no mirrors (Black as well as the seat). I'm also adding Hydroturf to both machines. I'm still trying to secure the rest of the parts for the XP and waiting for the new garage before I paint the hull.

Not being a boat guy, I did find that regular magic erasers work awesome to restore the plastic on these machines. Here a pick of half the hood done. Even in the pictures you can see the difference.
