[QUOTE="driveshaft22, post: 338098, member: 12499"] Hi thanks for the reply. Its made by DeHavilland here in Australia in about 1972. They were a aircraft manufacturer that also made boats from the 50's till the early 80's when they were bought out by Boeing Australia I think. What ever grade ally they used is by far the best Ive seen. No corrosion or pitting anywhere, just amazing. This will look even better when the seats and electronics are in. It would have been a nice fun project except its the middle of summer here and we just had a week of 42-47deg C and no shed or workshop for shade. Its nice to know that I designed and built everything myself and it turned out exactly the same as the original plans showed. [/QUOTE]
