Just purchased a 1959 Lonestar Eldorado.
Picking up next weekend. It appears to be in nice condition. It has a 1979 Mercury 115 hp outboard motor. I am going to rewire as the wiring is a mess. I plan to pull the floor to check rivets for leaks and paint the inside.
This forum has a lot of great information and I am sure I will have lots of questions.
I am planning to add kicker motor as the lake were I live has 650 miles of shoreline some of it remote. Should I consider moving fuel tank and battery forward since the engine is larger than the boat was originally rated for?
Thank y’all
