1979 Squire Shop
Unlimited Hydroplane Restoration Project
Update #16 (February 22, 2017)
Back from the depths...
Making progress…
Brad Haskin has been making big strides on repairing the engine cowling……………well, see for yourself.
The cracks and damaged areas have been patched up and the shaping/sanding process has begun. Before you know it, it will look brand new again!
It’s actually pretty remarkable considering where the cowling was being “stored” for the past 35+ years…………..in 160 feet of water in Lake Washington.
Check out the photo gallery and videos below, you’ll see Brad working the sander and a sample of what it takes to bring parts like this back to life.
