Hi all,
It was a little beat up but ran well when I decided to take it apart 23 years ago. Had 2 kids and haven't touched it since. Really itching to get it back together and running again. It has a flat head Kaiser 6 in it. I think it spent some time in the forest service. Originally Orangeish red and used to go fishing in it in Chester, Ca when I was a kid so has sentimental value. I started painting it yellow 23 years ago but am now thinking I'd go with a deeper red/burgundy. I have since bought a yellow 72 Chevy C20 truck so don't need 2 yellow rigs. My fuel system is gunked up and need to replace the gas tank. Debating over a plastic or metal tank. I'm strong on paint and welding but not as much on mechanical so will probably be asking a lot of questions.
That's my story and looking forward to joining this group!
Thanks,
