My new project.

For as old as it is and now that you've got some paint on it I have to say that hull looks very straight. I think you'll be proud when it's finished!

Yeah it only had 2 small holes in the bow. One was high up. One of the corners is a little crushed on the transom too but I'm not worried about it. Very few small dings and gouges overall.

Looks sleek. Real stellar tin man!

Got some sunlight today. Second coat of paint had some brush marks. Oh well.

Brush? no sponge roller?

 

[Cdwa_78]

Instructions with paint said to use a high quality brush. Plus I would of had to brush half of it just due to the rivets and body panels.

You do good work.

Thanks guys. The next one will be better. Learned a lot during this. Made me some stencils and added a lil something too. Gonna do a sharks mouth on the front in a few days.

Paint has turned out nicely, good job!

 

[Cdwa_78]

Little work done today.

I had two boats and a canoe at one point that I put shark mouths on all three! Man I miss the looks you'd get.

Got some framing done today

How are you attaching your framing to the hull? I'm curious because I have a 1976 alumicraft and I. Thinking about putting a floor in it

Time to start cutting plywood.

I'm not attaching the frame to the hull. I'm putting ply over it and then making some braces that go from the old seat mounts to the ply to hold the ply down.

 

[Cdwa_78]

And to add structure back to the boat.

Lone Star decals came in
