That might not be a bad idea, Who knows what it would end up looking like. LOL

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

oh man...we gotta take that thing out for some fishing fun...
you've done about as much work as i have on my boat...
since i havent had a job in over 2 months, you'd think i would have been working on the boat, but been working on other projects around the house....
i did manage to get the railings mounted back on the boat

Hello everone,
It's good to be back, sorry I've been gone so long. glad to see a lot of my old friends are still here too. I would love to hook up with a group of us next year for a few days of fun.
mrdjflores, when I get home permanently you will have to come down and try it out it is a real blast. It will take your mind off your problems for a while. LOL
Sprintst, Triton, Last Mohican, glad to see all of you too.
Dustin, Glad you liked my work.

Take care everyone.
Bob

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

nice looking toy Bob, i have only seen a few of those around and that has been forever. when will the restoration thread for it start?

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

rrumba,
Right now it's running and water tight. I'm just going to play with it for a while and try to get the boat finished before spring. then I may look at restoring it. Oh wait I already have a second boat in my yard. Wifey not very happy about that either but oh well. I also found a old SeaRay cruiser, looks like it close to 30+ feet. Hummmmmm.
Take care
Bob

Hello Bob,

Just finished reading through your entire thread. Amazing work, thru and thru...

Thanks for taking the time to visit my resto thread, I am saving the marshmallow idea for the campfire this weekend.

Hope all is going well with you and yours.

The 8x8 is super cool!

I will continue to follow along as you get closer and closer to SPLASH Time!

Best Regards and Godspeed,
GT1M

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Thanks GT,
I hoping after the first of the year I can get back on it. If the company I work for keeps their word I'll be home every night and get some serious work done. Unfortunately I am hearing whispers of another plant needing help and I may get stuck in it. We shall see.
Thanks for stopping in and I hope you enjoyed my thread.

Take care
Bob

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Nice Argo Bob.You got one of the good 8 wheelers. The 6 wheel version is pretty cramped. They're quite popular around here as they are made about a half hour from here. There's a dealer just south of town as well. A buddy has one and it's a blast, and great in the winter with the track kit. ENJOY!

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Thanks Jeep Man,
It has been a blast so far.

Take care

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Hope you can get back on the boat Bob, maybe things will work out where you can have her on the water next summer!

 

[BobsGlasstream]

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Thanks arch,
That is my plan. I have been looking forward to it for three years now. I know I still have a lot of work to do yet. even after I get it gel coated, the interior will take some time. Oh well I knew it was going to take a while. I will get her done yet.

Take care All
Bob

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

hey bob, i'll help you out with the seating when you get to that point. i still have a few seats to make for mine, and then will be done with the sewing for awhile

 

[BobsGlasstream]

Re: Timid but determined Glasstream restoration

Thanks Tallcanadian, It's good to be back too. Hopefully I can get some work done soon. Until then I will just ride along with the other builds.

mrdjflores,
I may take you up on that when the time comes. Glad to see you are still around too.

Take care all
Bob
