my first tin project

[bassin]

here is my 1542 aluma weld project i picked up a couple weeks ago. got a great deal on it off craigslist. weather hasn't let me get much done. i have ripped the front deck out and seats out so far. i plan on completely redoing everything on the boat. paint, carpet, trailer, bigger motor. it has a great running 1999 5hp 4 stroke nissan motor with tiller i am willing to sale if anyone is interested? it had a jet motor on it before and i plan on putting another back on it. i will be posting pics of my progress as i get it done.

Nice looking boat you have! Is your back seat also a live well? You going to put a new front deck in and new floor or just leave it like it is?

rear bench has storage and the middle bench has a huge livewell. i plan on having a 6ft front deck with storage underneath, full flooring with carpet through out the boat and add foam under the flooring, 2 seats on the rear bench, i have a 25hp jet outboard to put on it, i am going to paint the boat black and silver to match my truck or camo havent decided yet, road armour the entire trailer and recarpet the boards, possibly new wheels and rims, add a trolling motor, fishfinder and possibly a micro anchor powerpole. hope it basicly turns out to be like a small bass boat set up.

Good luck on your build! Should be a good looking boat when you are finished.
