As i look thru my pics i realize the sequence of events are a bit jacked up. Phone swaps and gallery folders are killing me...lol. I am trying not to jump around with what im showing but the work i did and the ADHD in me is all over the place. When one part doesn't show up or fit im on to the next item i can tackle. Hence ,.....now the whole boat is blown apart...

So at this point I'm good with the over all lines of the boat. Blacking out the windscreen helped. I am working on some little nick knack pieces for the vent holes and still cleaning up the interior, we'll actually stripping and cleaning out the interior. I'll post pics of the stripped out dash and floor soon. I'm also still assembling powder coated hardware in the bilge. I went round and round with some used mtrs and took a bath on that deal. I've licked my wounds and Finally broke down and decided to go with some ultra tall Dart blocks and Heads. Building 632 NA to run on 89/90 pump gas.
