[QUOTE="Led_Junkie, post: 324306, member: 12092"] I would 1st give that decking a real good pressure washing then plug it up and fill with water to check for leaks. Followed by replacing the transom. Lots of topics on leak repair, rivets can be re-bucked or replaced pretty easily and required minimum outlay for tools. For paint removal I would find someone to soda blast or use a soft media blast such as walnut or plastic. Otherwise a good paint removal head like a course Scotch Brite pad on a angle grinder will be pretty fast along with some quality paint stripper. Check your wiring or just scrap it and start fresh. Steering controls seem to be in place. Decking can be wood or Aluminunm sheet riveted to the bracing would be great and last forever. Looks awesome. Great project :) [/QUOTE]
