[QUOTE="joho5, post: 46634, member: 616"] Ok, I appologize but I didnt take pics of the process, but here is the basically finished state. This is a 1974 Delhi flatbottom boat that is 14 ft long. It took me all summer but it was due to the summer Texas heat. I couldnt work more than about 1-2 hours at a time before I had to stop. basically just added a casting deck to the front with a bow mount trolling motor and graph - all carpeted. I painted the outside and inside. It has a 1971 Johnson 9.5 that I rebuild the carb, lower unit seals, and fuel pump. I also basically bought a trailer that was in its grave in a field and sanded / primed / got new tires / got new bunks and carpeted them and it works fine. I learned alot from this project as it was my first boat to ever restore as well as outboard motor to work on. take a look [img]https://www.tinboats.net/forum/images/albums/userpics/PIC-0028.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.tinboats.net/forum/images/albums/userpics/PIC-0029.jpg[/img] [img]https://www.tinboats.net/forum/images/albums/userpics/PIC-0030%7E0.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
