sunbird1.jpgSeems Sunbirds are harder and harder to find in good shape. Looks like I am one of the few restoring one! 1992 Corsair 20.5 with 5.0 Cobra. Replaced floors, rebuilt outdrive and carb.....like 4 times lol! Painted hull Fighting Lady Yellow which took 20 years off its age. New carpet and currently painting all vinyl with vinyl/fabric paint which has made the interior look new again. Boat gets a ton of compliments and people can't believe it's 29 years old since painted. Sure it's not the best made boat out there but it has great lines and does the job. OMC gets a bad rap but the motor has been very reliable. Anyone else restoring one? sunbird.jpg

My restoration has been an ongoing project for years. I love what you've done. We have the exact same boat. Is yours the 205SL(sunlounger)?
