TOPIC: Meteor, Home at last

After being in storage in a friends shop in Findlay, Ohio for the past 2 1/2 years our Meteor has finally made it home. After receiving a low bid of $3,000 for delivery we figured we would have to make a trip to Ohio to pick it up. Each year we planned our trip so that we could attend the Show at Lake Geneva, and each year we had to cancel. Seems LIFE just gets in the way, sometimes. Well.... Last week a friend from Michigan called saying he was hauling an empty 28' enclosed trailer to Wickenburg, AZ and asked if I had anything that I needed delivered to Arizona ??? LOL

Here it is:

does it still have a canadian accent heh look forward to seeing it good luck it has a good home Bill

Looks great!

Looking forward to seeing it rehab'd

She appears to be in pretty decent shape and complete, congrats on finally getting the ole girl home Larry.

Nice! Beautiful boat. How difficult are these to find?

From my experience, they are not hard at all to find. I know where a dozen are. Getting someone to part with one is where the difficulty is. And coming up with the considerable cash if you do find one that someone will sell.

Glad it's Home.

Thanks Guys,

We hope to get started on the restoration this Fall.

Yes Bill, it definitely has or had a Canadian accent.

Many may recognize this eBay photo of the Meteor from 2011.

Larry, I remember that boat when it was posted here a while back. Glad it's home and looking forward to the restoration progress and finished product. I've only seen one of these in person, and that was the one owned by one of your clients at your shop. This one looks like in much better shape and very complete with original trim. These Lonestar Meteor boats are to me one of the coolest looking glassics out there. Congratulations again.
