You guys got some great deals. My best was a 90 SJ with a 61X 701, b-pipe, and a few other goodies for $650. I made all my money back on the part out plus a motor and a OP steering nozzle.

First off, I never wanted to buy any of these things, they just happened, and here I am.

1. 00' Ford F-150: Purchased in 2004 for $2000 (not salvaged, good title with 74k miles.)

2. Stock 94' FX1: $700

3. 99' Malibu Barefoot with 05' Mercury 200 for $2,500 (went partners with my dad, but still a good deal - $28,000 used boat.)
 
I didnt get it from CL, more like being at the right place at the right time but I picled my Sxi Pro up for $350 bucks. Running with title. Does that count?

My 550 for 70 dollars motor was frozen but it had over 100 dollars of after market parts. When i got the ski home and removed the motor and wash all the back alge stuff off. I then found out it was rebuilt in 95 for freestyle and the hull was completely reinforced..
 
I got a locked up 95 FX1 w/title........for a case of beer. Im still laughing about it years later. MWWAAAHHHAAAHHAAA
