So to avoid being "pruned" as an inactive member, I guess I'll post the progress of my Ventura rebuild.
I acquired a 1970 ventura 1 last spring, and have been making steady progress ever since.

Re: Ventura Rebuild
Yes, I have a bunch more pics I was trying to post from Photobucket, but the site won't let me do it. "looks too much like spam" Is there anyway around that?
One of the previous owners had a fuel tank up front, and thought it needed to be vented with four huge yacht vents! I have them patched from inside, just need to smooth it out on the topside now.

Re: Ventura Rebuild
Of course the core was in pristine condition!


Fast forward a month or two...

A little vacuum bagging...

Chet hard at work.

A lot of vacuum bagging...
