    1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15

    No, it had pedestal seats somewhere I think as it has a factory aluminum floor. This pic shows better. I started a new thread under full boat projects, with the same subject line, since finding out the transom was totally rotted, and tearing it out required removing everything, making it a...

    1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15

    Need to get the motor up on the make shift rack and get the lower unit off. Skeg is in terrible shape or I wouldn't have just set it there. Prop is pretty chewed up but may still be salvagable according to a friend. I would like to remove the cheap spray paint from the original controls. Any...

    The smaller floatation ballast opposite the driver side had at some point been modified into a storage box. Doesn't look factory. I plan to do the same to the driver side one to match. Its not dry storage, but will be handy to keep small things out of the way. The existing one does hold...

    Here you can see where and how the baitwell was plumbed. The drain hose was run through the foam floatation ballasts and emptied into the back of the boat. Some previous owner sealed up the through hull fitting with epoxy so it just emtied into the back of the boat. I guess they ran the bilge...

    I set the console and driver seat mount / baitwell back in the boat to show how they are laid out. It had a shoddily done front deck when I got it in March, which when I tore out revealed the factory set up had been cut out prior to it. I would like to know how it was originally built and see...

    Got the transom torn out and the mess cleaned up. You can tell from the pics how it was all put together. I didn't want to grind out solid rivets, especially ones in the bottom, but all six solid rivets that held the knee brace to the transom were either sheared off with nothing but paint...

    Now that I tore the transom out and found out it was completely rotted, thought I would start a new thread here, since that turned it into a complete tear down project. I guess I should have figured that from the start. Here are the only pics I've taken so far. I think it originally had a...

    1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15

    I already know what it is. It is a 1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15. The HIN is riveted outside the transom on the upper starboard side. I would like to find out how it was originally configured, size of the front deck and locations of passenger seats. Way too many extra holes drilled to discern.

    1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15

    I am brand new to TinBoats having found this site trying to get info for an aluminum boat I recently aquired. It is a 1979 Lowe Line Stinger 15 with what assume is the Hustler trailer that came with it originally. I have taken every thing off but the paint and carpet residue. I would like to...
