  • California Girl is coming along !

    Today was kind of slow , so i made up a album on the G-3. The " California Girl" project has been a on going project since Berry Bates ( Sparrowhawk ) pick it up for me in Northern California from Jim Barker ( member of GSG ) in Sept. When i had it over at Marty's last fall ,he filled in all of the holes , primer it, built the bench seat, dash wood, reforce the floor where the 12 gal tank will go. As of March , i still need to finish up on the steering, windshield, hardware etc,etc. More photo's at my G-3 project album. Chuck

    Chuck you just have too much fun! That is going to be another outstanding finished project of yours. Hmmmmmmmmmmm!! Lets see - you have started and finished maybe 8 or 9 boats to my grand total of not even one.:eek:

    It is the good guys like you that keep my flame burning to finish strong (with only one boat). Congratulations!! on another one!!

          Hard to believe that sharp looking G3 is the same one that followed me home. Can't wait for a ride in that one. Barry

            I didn't see it before you started working on her, but she sure is looking sharp now. Do you have a launch date yet?

                  Chuck, that thing isn't done yet ... I don't see any canvas covers! That steering wheel shouldn't be out unprotected like that, and what about the ...
