I have acquired my very own money pit. 1977 Starcraft (aluminum of course) Chieftan 22' cuddy hardtop. I'm currently going thru the engine, but need some guidance on ripping out the floor, gas tanks, side panels....then inside sealing. Maybe I'd better stop there for a while.
Thanks

Welcome and looking forward to pics!

I recommend you go slow and use masking tape to mark parts that you might not remember later. There is lots of help here. Good luck!

Welcome Benta. There is a Starcraft Forum you need to check out. In there is a restoration thread and other threads as you will see. They will show you how to remove and restore these boats. Take a few minutes..ok days, and read some of them. Don't forget to post pics, there are a requirement on here.
