[Froggy]

Sell , sell, no fishing? building these is addictive!! great find.... what is it? can you use a bar stool to steer it! just kidding, looking forward to the mod

 

[ppettit]

Nice find. Look forward to seeing what you do with it!

 

[rusmir]

Im sure i could use a stoll to steer just need to build a box so i can mount the stoll . Im so busy with work now its crazy . I cant even finish my other stuff and sell it.

 

[Nevillizer]

Thats a good deal. Look forward to a finished project.

 

[rusmir]

Ok i lied . I started working today on it . Im gonna redo the wood on the trailer snd recarpet it and tomorow maybe i will do some light sandind and clean up the inside and remove screws and other old stuff

 

[rusmir]

Quick question im thinking of painting the inside ' the old stuff thats on there its sticking pretty good i tried going with agrinder its hatd comming oofffanyways should i justrough itupand paint over or .., im thinking about doing it today! I need fast responses

 

[russ010]

if it's not coming off with the grinder, I would rough it up and start painting... One thing you might want to do after your first coat is lightly wet sand it with some 300 grit paper, then put another coat on it. That should take care of anything

 

[rusmir]

Ok sounds good . Do i sand it by hand or belt sander or how. Before painting and after how willdo it

 

[huntinfool]

Take lots of pics!

 

[micnichol]

now thats cool

 

[caveman]

how did it go today?

 

[rusmir]

well it sent good except when i got redy to spray . it started to get windy and sun went under the clouds i was like man shy god, hehe anyways i probably will do it in 2 days or tomorow

 

[caveman]

That is my luck also but spring is around the corner.

 

[rusmir]

i thought i could still do it but it started raining o well
what u think how much this thing is worth when its in 100 % working condition and done .
