Title: Accessories for Springer
Post by: Voodoohydro on March 25, 2009, 11:58:05 am
Would like to know were everybody gets there accessories, like motors, running gear, props and drive shafts and things like that.
Also things like lights and figures and all the extras that go on the boat.

Thanks again, Keith :embarrassed:

If Dave at Harbor doesnt have what you want, try Loyalhanna

Or Mack

Tower Hobbies has some stuff you might find useful, a lot of car gear can be used in a Springer.

Thanks toesupwa. I've been to your site before and that is going to be my first stop when i get ready to buy. You have a few things there i want. I've seen the in side of one of ur boats with the lite up computer screen and the radar screen, are you going to be selling those things? I no thats got to be alot of hard work and time consumming making those. But when and if they become for sale I'll buy those two. Also thanks for the other sites as well.

Keith, that was Umi`s site Toes was referring to.  She is the magician with the lit-up screens and a host of other goodies. Dont forget to post pics of your Springer build.
