[QUOTE="Rgriffith, post: 232406, member: 7264"] Hey new member here, just wanted to thank everyone for the tips and tricks for restoring these old tin boats. I've been reading post on here for months. Got my first project about 3 weeks ago. Its a 12 foot Sears V hull. I believe its a early 70's model and it has a Sears Eska 3.5 HP 1972 model. Will be converting it to a mini bass boat for pond hopper tournaments that require a 14 1/2' boat or less. Here she is when i got her [img]https://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee454/rgriffith1974/5T55P65S03n23p53o6bbe02ce4b23ac511f9e.jpg[/img] Project List Install Decking Install Custom Livewell Rhino line inside and bottom New Transom Paint Add Seats Add Trolling Motor And lots of prepping. I've got the bottom primered and lined I'll post pics later, prepping the inside this week for lining. Just bought my second project as well, a 1972 13" Cherokee V hull :D So needless to say, i'm already addicted... [/QUOTE]
