Re: 1963 16 ft Starcraft Jupiter restoration
Yes it was a lot of grinding but I worked in aircraft sheetmetal for ten years and spent many hours and days grinding corrosion in the belly and fuel tanks of large aircraft. I know lots of short cuts and time saving methods and I have a good supply of special grinding disk ( wink,wink) and most important is "you got to get your mind right luke"LOL. I just need to fill some holes caused by pitting and get it gluvited and painted. I will be gone on VAC next week so I will not get much done next week except to rest up and hit it when I get back.
