I've finally started my restoration project. The motor (a Chevy 305 4bbl) is out, the transmission as well. The interior is gutted, and the exhausts have been cut off. There is of still of course much more needed before the actual restoration can start, but you gotta strip before you build...lol. I'm hoping to have pictures of the tear down up before the weekend, depending on my schedule. I have big plans for this old boat, and i'm hoping to find some helpful answers and opinions from the many enthusiasts on this great site. More to come, I will do my best to keep everyone interested well informed.
