My 1968 Glastron GT160 rebuild......

[Corjen1]

Some more upholstery...but this time its mine!!! completed the bow seating today...













Yes, there were some 155 Merc ToP noises being made and a bit of day dreaming, that definitely revitalized the vision of splash!!

Looks comfortable. Nice to be able to enjoy the fruits of our labors right. Your upholstery skills are definitely top notch. Nice job.:clap2:

Now enough relaxing time to get back t o work. So you can get her back in the water.:fish2:

Nice work! I didn't realize you found her at Tenkiller, I was 30 miles from there at Eufaula. Did some spring cleaning, hurry up and get her put together! Looking great!

Time to get cracking again....ordered my switches, gauges, fuse block panel, horn, battery box, Battery isolator and charging block for Ipods/cigarette lighter receptacle today. Guess some wiring is in my future

Hope you all are doing well!!

 

[Corjen1]

Ok, maybe wiring soon is a stretch.....but definitely cutting holes!! Seems strange to to through all the work to plug, fill and sand all the old holes and then cut some new ones!!

I know the feeling measure 10 or 12 times....better yet cut out paper mock ups for your layout and tape them on.

My toggle switches came in....I think they are kinda cool....blue led that is light when on. Since, Im in aviation, I like guarded switches.









Have a great rest weekend!!

 

[Tnstratofam]

Those toggle switches are cool. Where did you get them?

 

[archbuilder]

Does that arm the torpedoes or what? Lol......I hope no one has a UT flag flying when you get her on the water lol

Wait a minute, that is the depth charge switch right?

cool gauges you will like them, same thing that is in Miss Morgan. I may still have an extra trim gauge if you need it.....thought mine was the wrong guage....ended up I had the wrong sending unit.

Defintely....stocking up bits for the next hard push on the boat.....Have several thing left to get.....some more resin, floatation foam...cabosil ect. I have 2 upholstery jobs left, then I can get to cracking on her!! Still hoping to splash sometime this summer.

 

[Corjen1]

Still gathering up parts.... but almost there!! Question for you guys....to jack plate or not.....why would I need one or why stay away from it??
