Here is the link to my google photo album. I should finish it this winter. All I have left is to wet sand and buff it, put the dash in, Put the new decals on, and do some fine tuning.

So Trim is the far left switch, then tilt, then blower on the left side of steering wheel.

Thanks Jason, for going through the trouble to get those picture. It looks like they really changed the 74.

I still would love to see a 72 or 73 close up, if you guy's ever run across one let me know.

Thanks for your help.

Getting 'URL not found' as well.

Check your album permisson's...can be either public or unlisted, but not private. It works for you because its your album...

Sorry about that I thought that it was marked sharable. This is supposed to be a shared link to the album.

Just some more food for thought on switching the control handle. I had the same exact handle in my v-179 you have. If you watch ebay you can find the period correct replacement handle with the trim/tilt switches. I will see if I have a picture of mine some where.

edit: found a pic

Thanks.

I’d love to see it, but I still want to keep this boat original, which mean using the same old cumbersome set up.

I don't blame you.

That is like. . . awesome!

Funny you took the floor out to the kick board, I did the same. Looks like you kept the original keel and then laminated it; good idea, as when I totally replaced mine the nonlinear taper in it was a bugger to fit and duplicate.

I think we need some more pics of the orange, but then again I'm just a little predjuce.

Thank goodness the original posters questions were answered . . . I think? . . . because we are veering off track here.

Dear Gregg

I think there is a chance you are color blind and cannot tell that there is no difference between apricot and orange.

. (Unless your discussing mother Glastron/Carlson liturature)
LOL

Hyperacme · « **Reply #35 on:** November 19, 2015, 11:08:14 PM »

Yep ... Worst case of thread thief in some time ...

But ...
Apricot's my favorite color ... Well gold's my favorite also ...

thedeuceman · « **Reply #36 on:** November 20, 2015, 08:46:40 AM »

"FLAKE" is my favorite color !!!!

Yeah it looks like my tread has been hijacked a little bit, but it took a great turn, I love it.

Awesome boat David.

I agree we do need more orange (Apricot) in here. I do have carpet envy though. After seeing that, I think I’m going to have to step up my game and find some orange carpet. I gave up after looking for a long time and put dark grey in mine.

Yes. Laminating the Keel seemed to be the best choice since it was in pretty good shape anyway. I just wanted to strengthen it, so I laminated it with ¾ inch marine grade plywood. The picture doesn’t show it, but I did Fiberglas it in as well.

Just FYI

I’m still a little unsure about the switch plate, but I think that the general consensus is that Glastron also put the tilt or the out switch on the dash as well. I still would like to see another 72 with the Mercruiser IO thou.

I have one, not very good picture of Tom V's CV16ss. I think it was a 73?
Maybe he has more?
