Restoring Lonestar Admiral Deluxe

[TexasLoneStar56]

For instance, it won't fix the half of my finger that i recently lost in my argument [-X with my table saw.

OH MY! :shock: My Dad lost 3 of his, the same way. Be careful, and use that guard!

I'll keep an eye out for you a wheel, as well. I'm on ebay quite regularly.

Thanks. I hope this will be the only finger I lose! For the work I do, a guard is often not possible.

I saw a couple of wheels on E-bay. One was missing the center cap for $45 (I need the cap to mount my emblem on---I'm afrais that my cap is too far gone., and the other was the complete steering mount, wheel, and cap for $95, but I can't pay that. And to think, I gave a couple away when I moved here

I'm thinking of selling the 1956 Lonestar Admiral. Gotta raise some cash to finish building my sailboat. Aluminum classic boat, needs restoration. Solid boat.
$600.oo for boat, trailer, and some restoration parts.

Chick,
you might want to give this guy a call he has redone a couple of steering wheels for my custom truck builds. Incedible results and what I felt was fair prices. He is located in Carlisle PA.

okay - which one of you guys are overwhelmed with your projects
and are ready to sell ????
I am within driving distance to either one of you.

 

[Chick Ludwig]

Not so much overwhelmed as underfunded! Fel free to give me a call at 828-595-9432.

Thanks for the admit.
Just purchased a 1953 Lonestar Admiral Deluxe 14'. 320569
This one has the original trailer, but a newer 1999 Mercury 25hp 4s bigfoot., Electric start.
I'm enjoying reading and learning about these boats and their history. Thanks in advance for all the good info being shared!

Dan, my boat is also a 1953 Admiral Deluxe and was built 9 boats after yours.
I'm in Oklahoma, boat had been here for a long time.

Mine is a 57 Deluxe sold thru Sears as an Elgin. Hull # is 23115170. If you have pictures please share them. Mine will go in the water for the first time since I’ve owned it this spring. Steve Blase

If I may suggest...get the paper work in order before spending any money !!! You need to be sure you actually own it, otherwise it might just be scrap or a lawn decoration.
