Re: 1968 Larson rebuild
Sacrificed some sleep recently to put in some hours. June first is this Saturday and I've got to have it sitting at the dock waiting to give my Father-in-Law a ride to win our little bet. Here's some pictures of the interior after the side boards were mounted.
From the stern:
From the bow:
My Brother putting the stern trim and splashwell tube in. (because we mounted the motor today) (no, we didn't use nails. He's got the hammer tapping the cap piece back in place.)
And one last pic moving the boat into the house garage to mount the motor. I'm pleased with the top coat, but the sides need a serious buffing and I'll be painting the bottom black (where it's red.)
next steps:
I stained a piece of wood (dark brown) and will be using it as the dash. I've got some hinges, a lock, and a handle that I'll be using to make a door for the glove box. I bought a 4 switch fuse panel that will be mounted to the right of the steering wheel mount and I'm hoping to get this all done today.
Reattaching the seats.
Steering wheel and steering mech
windshield install (including trying to restore the shine)
gas tank and plumbing
lights (bow & stern)
Change the lower end lube in the motor
---Splash test!---
We'll see how many of these I can get knocked off the list in a couple hours today.
Happy Memorial Day!
