Yes please do, let's see what goodies are on that 787

 

[fokker]

[fokker]

gotta replace grey fuel lines and carb rebuild for sure! Dont know if has factory size carbs or not yet.

 

[AdamXP800]

Do you see any aftermarket parts under there? Head, factory pipe? Coffman pipe?

 

[Ruskeyjdm]

That is a lotta goodies for 300$!

 

[fokker]

Gotta look tomorrow....I had to drop it off @ the house and head to work. Also, I know where another 96 is with no trailer..going to check on it tmw. Don't know mechanical condition but I know it would probably sell for around $200

Nice score. Got a great project ahead of you.

 

[fokker]

what's the best way to clean that faded, dull hood?

 

[Jetskigoodies]

The umi setup is worth as much as you paid for the whole xp lol. Nice pickup

 

[SeadooMan8]

You can take that oxidized good an clean it up with some wet steel wool or even better SOS pads. Works magic! An cheap. But amazing but for $300

 

[CReynoldsMIZ]

Wet sanding is where I would start.

Wet sanding is where I would start.

Almost the same thing. Both is taking layers off the hood to get back down to the real color, but for my ski I'm restoring I'm using turtle wax Rubbing compound for medium to heavy oxidation an scratches and it's working beautifully. I'll post pictures of it, 1994 seadoo SPI. After I'm done with the rubbing compound I'm using turtle wax wax haha.

I used soft scrub, then a heat gun. Finished with "wipe new" from Walmart.

This looks like it could have had water in it....vts looked good though
