Restoration is what the soul needs
Like most of you guys, I have restored a lot of items in my life. Everything from a 73 Cuda, 1966 Shelby,1973 J-4000 Jeep, various Comanche's. Tractors. Compound bows. Guns, Vintage tin toys,,, !! Houses, Race cars,,,,Boats. Just about anything I can get my hands on. So here is a link to MySpace that shows the reincarnation of a 1958 Feather Craft that had been in the woods way too long. If anyone needs to know how to flush patch by shooting real rivets with bucking bars ,,,,let me know. I love working sheet metal. I have a brake, roller,shear, English wheel and forming stumps. Along with the usual lathes, mig, plasma gun. I'm glad to share.

EK, Great work on the boat! I wish I had the space and tools you have! You are welcome to come up and visit with your boat. We live on Owasco Lake. I have a 65 Chris Craft (my other CC) that I bought in original condition.

Thanks Jason http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AUTO-...motiveQ5fTools http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1-GAL...motiveQ5fTools http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SEM-M...motiveQ5fTools Is urethane better or epoxy? self etching direct to metal (DTM) or just plain DTM??

I would not sand blast the engine or the rear end. You are just asking for trouble. Sand will work its way into every nook and cranny and there is no way you would be able to keep it all out.
Easy off oven cleaner will clean all the dirt and grease and some paint off. You should be able to just wire brush the rear end and engine after that and paint. I like to use an epoxy primer from Nasson, its metal etching and you can use it right over bare metal as well as primer or old paint basically using it for a sealer before you paint. I don't have a number here at home, I can find out next time I run out to the shop. Randy

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
