Restoring 74 GT160 Orange HELP!
« on: April 21, 2017, 08:40:59 PM »
I have a 1974 GT 160 Orange with a 1975 Evinrude 135HP that need a complete restore. I removed the carpet and found several rotted spots in the floor.  I been on the forum to locate new carpet. The gelcoat need a buff out.  I'm need to replace the plastic injected molded nameplates on each side. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum !

You can find the football shaped side emblems on eBay or Facebook.
There's also the "Sticker" ones ... Look here ...

Original orange carpet is hard to find ...
Some have gone with a tan / brown color ... Looks pretty good ... see picture below.
