1990 xb02 project

[Bill Kemp]

this is the first project on mine with many more to go as the wife lets me spend money :roll: :roll: got the plate from a fellow allison owner and i'm in the process of have it powdercoated

 

[John Richied]

When they powdercoat it can they keep the gold inlay in the Allison lettering?

I have a 9” plate I sandblasted and it’s down to the clean look of brushed aluminum.

I also have the adjustable 10 to 13.5” Allison plate I painted and it didn’t turn out as good as I wanted it to.

john a good powdercoat person can save the original color on the letters or even coat them back to the original color. a good friend is doing mine and we went with the red letters to match the pinstrips on the hull now i just have to get it changed out with the one on the boat

 

[Bill Kemp]

started the next phase of my restoration order new carpet, bucket cover, high back fishing seats, rubrail, and decals going to spend the next month wet sanding and buffing
