    Thanks Rasdiir, Never thought of the seat plate for under the pedestals but great advice vs finding out later. Exactly the stuff I was looking for. Do I move this thread to the StarCraft forum or copy it to their and repost? Thank again

    1973 StarCraft SS 16 Restore

    Hi Everyone, I just picked up a 1973 StarCraft Super Sport 16 footer. The hull seems to be in good shape but the floor and interior is shot.
