Yes Glenn. Looks like a strip and repaint. Fins look to be fairly good in the picture. Might be some other light repair work but nothing to serious I'm guessing.

My back is starting to hurt.......

May be your back wouldn't hurt if you put your ladder on the floor instead of trying to work on it mounted to the wall?  Just sayin.   :doah:

Thanks for the edit Leech. You can edit the next one as well if ya like. I can't get them to turn the right way from my phone. Have tried before but it just doesn't work.
Mike, I do that with a wet towel so they won't dry out while working on the rest of it.
So here is the almost ready for a Crown/Sour picture😁
Day is almost done!

Thanks guys. I now have the ears where want them.  (Not so much in the picture). They came in pretty tough shape, one cut short and the other a large notch out of it. He must have been a scrapper. And the tannery did them no help. Not where I would like them.......but they are back and down and less noticeable.
So now I can sit back and enjoy a Crown....  :smiley:while I pick it apart and make adjustments through out the evening.
