Default polishing an old turd

Well since I have been on this site for many years and never posted pics I figure I should try to. This is my old bucket that I bought and redid last year. Hopefully you guys will like how my 28 turns out.

how she looked when I bought her

Whole boat was pretty rough, So far I have rewired the whole dash with the new Livorsi 4 pin connectors, every cable is new. New gaffrig throttles. Gutted the whole cockpit. had two new bolsters made. Rebuilt the motors and new wiring harnesses. Took the old windshield welded it into a faring. Cut out all the old style cleats and placed some nice pop up cleats in their place. Many many more but im probably forgetting.

Now its time to build an old style race hatch!!!!!!
