I love this restoration!! I have done a couple of paint jobs with foam rollers and brushes in my time. Makes er nice and thick! Looks like you just need some tow hooks and a bunch of stickers and that baby is ready to get back in the mud! Looks like lotsa fun for your summer break.

it has front tow hooks on it.....but rear recovery is going to be a little tricky....

this slab originally had a hitch receiver on the rear and one day the previous owner was backing his boat down a hill and around a corner.....somehow the jack-knifed the boat and got the hitch caught and it ripped the receiver bolts right through the unibody so the back end is a mess lol
