Doesn't know how good he's got it!! That thing is definitely not too far gone to restore. Here in New Zealand, we start with virtually scrap metal, a hull like that one would be a god send.

It is missing way to many parts to restore right now. Untill I can find a donner carrier for parts I'm going to use it as is, or if I come into alot more money. She was just cut up way to bad.
