Very, very, very impressive Jeff!
We restored our boat the last 4 years, giving her a new paint scheme a few years back.
It's a lot of work...A LOT!!!! However, it's all worth it when you see people stare, actually stare at your boat and then want to take pictures of it when you pull into a dock! Great feeling.
We will never get out of our boat what we put into it. We did all the work ourselves (hubby's past included body work/paint) but we knew going into it that this is the case.
We took an '88 and made her look 15+ years newer! No regrets (even with the countles months put into her) in the restoration process.
Great job Jeff. We've been watching your progress. Look forward to seeing her finished. The dash is awesome looking!

Umm, there is now way in helllllllllllllll that you did all that under $16K. This is not a shot by any means, but seriously, no way that cheap. You've done a phenomenal job, but it takes a few more fun tickets than that to get to where you will be when this is done.
As an aside, wasn't this Lucky Strike's Uncle's old Cafe?

I don't think it is. My uncle sold it to a friend of his in NJ. Unless, Jeff bought it from his friend??
That is great work Jeff! I can't wait to see it all done.
