I tore my '84 JS440 apart this past spring in anticipation of restoring it.
Let the restoration commence!
------------------------------------------
So, lets see where I started. When bought this thing about 6 years ago it looked just like this except it still had the original 440 engine in it. After 2 summers with the 440, I had a chance at a 550 engine and swapped that in and that's how its been ever since. It runs strong, is dead reliable, but looks like junk.
