New to boating. Got one for free

[Glaze71]

I had a choice of any boat at a wrecking yard. All were too damaged except a Plymouth charger 154. I'm guessing it's a '73 or '74 with a 120hp engine. Needs cleaning, carpet, painting and the dreaded transfom repair. That's not including trying to see if she runs. Since I will do 90% of all repairs myself, I was hoping some of you good folk would help guide me. I'm excited to bring her home in next couple days.

for restoring a boat, first make sure you can register it in your name. without a title, its usually just a yard planter or parts.

I will have the bill of sale. What I understand that here in Canada, it's easy to get a number with serial number. I hope....

I am really surprised that the vinyl is in pretty good shape. One less thing for you to worry about.
