Been working a bit every night before rack time on restoring this old CT. It has a long way to go. It was missing so many parts and I had to scratch build them. Long way to go but it's starting to take shape again. It needs lots of sanding and filling. Even up the edges on the splash shield. Add all kinds of brass. Not to mention the UZO and the railings.This CT is over 25 years old at best.

This weekend I hope to get the limber holes in the hull finished.

I even got the conduits opened up again to the NAV lights so I can replace the old grains of wheat that were in there with LEDs.
