All shiney
I did a poor job documenting this rehab - so I will simply detail it. The frustrating part was rebuilding the trailer. Probably sunk $200 into all new hardware, wheels/tires, and many busted knuckles. I will never do this again - I will just buy a better trailer next time. Wich that completed, I wet sanded, buffed, and buffed the chalky red gelcoat with the full suite of 3M products. Not surprisingly, I still wasnt happy with the finish - very cloudy. So I took a risk and bought Penetrol at Lowes for 10 bucks and I am a believer. It is not for every project, but it really created a decent shine on this red....interior and out, but it wouldnt have worked without all the buffing and sanding. Far from perfect, but really good looking from 10ft or further. Best of all, I found a NOS white convertible Taylor Made top on ebay for $100. Never so happy. Additionally I found a low-hour 1979 Chrysler 35hp for power, and added a couple of white Wise back to back seats on the new grey carpet. I will add more interior shots - but bottom line, it is very snappy looking little rig. The top is what sets it off, though. I get more admiring looks than I expected for a low budget runabout.
