WELL.......
Might be best to do a Restomod.
It was painted with an Awlgrip type paint and the kids did a pretty good job of getting most of it off but the gelcoat is damaged. I'm
going to paint it.
The two halves were glassed together at some time. REALLY Glassed together! I've rebuilt the transom without splitting the boat. (Post

The windshield was painted black on the inside.
The "For Sale" sign was attached to the windshield with duct tape - made it all gooey - (Another post to follow)
I'm missing the bars that come off the back of the windshield, and one of the end caps amidships.
No seats. (Copied your seat post!)
I may stay in the same flavor as I really like the classic look. But like my cars, the casual person have to look close to tell that it's a
restomod.
Attached is a pic of my 1968 Meadowlark yellow 6 cylinder convertible. Now a Shelby clone wit 385hp and a tubular A arm suspension
with 4 wheel discs etc... To most people it's a Shelby. To Shelby people it an abomination. Hot Rodders and Restomodders give it a nod
of respect.
I think that's what I'll have to do with the CV16. Otherwise I'll have $10,000 in a $5000 boat (I'll just have $7000 in a $5000 boat!
