I would go for a clean up and long term restoration. This boat has all the looks and is in really good condition. There are people on here that run older motors that you should get involved with. Don't fear the pulley steering, I installed it on a boat to save cost and it worked just fine.

Well see how smart it was to join a site where we can share ideas and information. Thank you for the information. I looked it up and it is the reaction of copper in pressure treated lumber and moisture which causes the aluminum to be eaten up by electrolysis. A barrier is needed between the two...

Today was aluminum covers for the under seat foam flotation. The original was steel and it rusted something awful. I am using a wrap around with minimum sharp edges. New wood is pressure treated. Electric shears are incredible to use instead of sheet metal shears.

Wow that worked good. Here is a pic of the missing rivets. I punched them out, used a step drill to clean the holes, wire brushed faces both sides, then installed new rivets. The seats are out and I have stripped them down ready to rebuilt.

If the picture posts, this is my restore project.
