[QUOTE="VegaGT, post: 458535, member: 8142"] At this point I had coated all of the wood, cut the hatch opening, and painted all of the inside metal with Rustoleum. [img]https://i64.tinypic.com/smat75.jpg[/img] Next up, I started making the side panels. I was lucky to have nice original panels to use as templates but I extended them down towards the deck an inch and a half. All of the attachment points on the gunnels, side box, and the new bottom angles were done with rivet nuts. This makes it sooo much easier to remove them in the future. [img]https://i65.tinypic.com/2v1uc1t.jpg[/img] The attachment points for the splashwell were broken so I used some of the angle left from the side panel bottoms as replacements pieces.
