Re: 1969 Starcraft Chieftain Restoration
Hey guys. I just found this site yesterday, and read everything so far on the build of the chieftain. Alpheus seems to know his stuff, I wish I had the resources at my disposal that he has. This article is really interesting to me because I just bought a 1970 chieftain and brought it home last friday. I am not doing anything close to what he is doing with his, just rewiring and a new interior set up. I also have the baby s**t green everwhere in mine, even the original seats that are in good usable condition. I love the setup of the islander that is shown on here, and I think that is what I will mimmick with mine. Keep up the awesome work and please don't scrap her Alpheus. She has alot of life left, especially in your hands. You will conquer that paint. I think that "joe" used aluminum roof coating that is used to reseal mobile home roofs on this hull. You might want to look in this direction for removal.
