I was going to restore the top deck, which would have involved new white gelcoat, but it would not have looked any different. I talked to Froberg and he said the cracks around the fairing will come back so not really a priority now. If I have time I'm going to do a deep buffing/color restorer and replace those cover snaps as the salt water has taken a toll on them. I'll be real happy if I can just get it running.

Everything, LOL not sure that will ever happen. Always something with these old boats.
If I could sell these 454 blocks I could be in the water by May.
I've got some progress pics on my thread in the apache section.
