[QUOTE="TOY BOAT, post: 270207, member: 6910"] I sold my 65 Arkansas traveler to buy a bigger boat. I came across this 1959 Lone Star Newport off craigslist. It has the original 59 Johnson 35hp, and trailer. Simple plans include restoring the boat to original condition right down to the exact paint scheme. But with a modern twist. I plan on updating the seats, adding a radio, building walls for the inside with storage, adding electronics, a bimini top, and maybe a new Evinrude outboard at some point. The transom is solid, and the floors are already done, so that saves me some coin and time. Trailer lights and tires are new, and the outboard just got a tuneup with a lower end oil change. So for now, we are going to do what we did with our last tin. Put it in the water, and have some fun.
