This is how it looks now. I plan on posting more pics as I go through the rebuild process. Any help or input is always appreciated. I'm very excited to get started.

Good luck with it! Someday I hope to restore a top gun

Before I could even get stareted on the boat, I had to make room for it in my shop. As you can see, I need a bigger shop. I decided to see what worked and what didn't before I started dismantling everything. To my surprise, almost everything in the cabin worked. Then I took out the interior and removed the floor to inspect stringers and fuel tanks. I believe I need to remove the fuel tanks next to further inspect the hull.

The old interior is available if you know anyone looking. I was able to purchase newer interior to put back in .

mmm... got elbow grease? lol!

great project to follow!

Good luck with your project! You may be pleasantly surprised with the fuel tanks. There are a lot of older Guns out there with no issues and original tanks.

With your money, you wont need to buy a project...

Good luck with the project!, I love the classic lines of those Guns!

You have a great little helper there!.....His involvement experience will last him a lifetime!.......Good luck with the project!

Yeah ok.... And which one of us has the finest low hour example of a straight bottom gun????
