[QUOTE="Kismet, post: 348412, member: 8516"] Finally weather warmed up enough to start poking around on the Model A! Put a used Wise seat in place in back, currently looking around for a similar/duplicate single, or a pair of used, but nice, seats. Got the trailer welded and new bearings installed, then sanded down and painted the ?1950's-1940's? trailer with implement paint--used by farmers for equipment that is out in the weather. Think I'm just going to put some carpet up front, tacked with Shoe Goo. Don't often have a passenger, and want something for the dog to have purchase on when he goes up there to scout for...well, whatever he wants to scout for. The decking has proven to be stable and easy to manipulate. I'll tidy up the shims that keep it in place and call it good. One Winter, stored, and the shiny hand-polished hull is oxidizing evenly. I could see this being a favorite light boat. [/QUOTE]
