Fabricating wood/carpet housing just infront of engine

[jlhedrick]

I just purchased a 1988 Maxum 2000 19' in length with a 305 engine....engine block cracked and plan to upgrade to a 350..But the housing that sits in front of the engine made of wood and carpet is gone does anyone have pictures or know where I can get a template.

Thanks in advance
John

I contacted Maxum and they actually had a brochure of my boat and sent it to me along with some other articles they had. the brochure had a picture of the rear console in it so at least I would know what it looks like, Now to build one !
