Calling it a 'refresh' rather than a 'restoration' because (at the moment) I'm not going to do to the level as you guys; I'm just after a workable little fun boat.
Some last minute reading on 64osby's scrap thread and a quick last minute call to jbcurt and I felt like it was worth a shot to buy. Looking at the scrap thread a couple tells led me to believe we have different animals - I could reach thru the floor in the transom area and feel a cross member whereas his thread shows none and I was able to see the bow eye and his had foam on it. I was also (almost) able to pick up the a** end so don't think water logged. Would it have come with foam in '63?
So as I do not have any death threats against me:
Getting ready to head out form Wentzville MO
And in home driveway
