Here's a few shots of my 89 Convincor I bought at a repo auction last fall. The guy that had it was in the middle of restoring it. All the white on it was repainted from a beige color and he had all the vinyl redone but nothing was together. Everything that was touching the white was either missing or off. All the wiring was hanging out of the dash. Everything that is red on it I did and it came without swim platforms so I had some used ones painted and then sweated through the installation hoping I didn't screw up holes in the transom (I didn't). I managed to get the last windshield Checkmate had but they didn't have a cabin door or frame so if anybody has one or knows how to make one it would be appreciated. Next years project is to replace all the black gauges with white Gaffrigs that are just waiting for spring.

Team Ropa,
I may be able to put you in touch with a cabin door. I had and sold a 85 25 OB deck mate convincor with twin 2.4's.
I can get can get in touch with the owner and have him contact you to see if he wants to part with it.
My mate ran 60 ish with a Monty V8 and ran 75-80 with the 2.4 HP's screamin close to 8K. It was like driving a big stream
