2007 Hustler makeover

Hutch0500 · Jan 6, 2023

My good friend Justin had introduced me Erik (very stand up guy)who sold me the Funco that was all original minus the LS3 swap. After my very season I decided to take it a part and do a makeover. This is what it looked like when I took possession.

Right after the first season I decided to go through the whole thing. Took it to our guy Jason who had already done the windshield for me. I named him Picasso after the work was done. Less then a month later

After a couple of very expensive trips to Kartek the reassembly begun with all new heims -bushings -hardware and new wiring. At this times new seats were ordered from Jetteim along with new Craw belts and new black Autometer gauges.

We figured it takes about 150 hours to get everything back together. Maybe less if it’s not your first time.

Turns out the case on my 2D is cracked on the inside near the main shaft. Apparently no cases were available. Yet again some good friends came through with a new case.
