Hey Guys!! This is my first post on here! However, I've been reading everyone elses for the last month and they have been extremely helpful! Thank you! I bought this Supra about a month ago. With the wifey's permission I have been working on it late into the night for the last 3 weeks. After realizing how expensive it cost to do upholstery, I decided to tackle it myself. I replaced all the interior....floor, carpet, wood for benches, foam, and vinyl. I got alot of respect for the upholstury trade now! I also restored the gel-coat with an amazing product called poliglow (www.myboatstore.com). I wet sanded with a 600 grit paper to remove the heavy oxidation and then applied this product! I also put on new decals and pin stripes. I also put blue LED lights in the interior. I will post more pics soon! This project has been a blast and I plan to enjoy every bit of it this weekend!

Thanks for all the good words guys! It really helps to get praise from folks that can truely appreciate what hard work that has been put into a project. I did do the sewing myself....with the assistance of the Mother-In-Law. It was well worth it....cost of all interior materials racked up a grand total of $600. Hard work.....but a great learning experience!!!

Boat looks great, I like the extended pylon thru the bimini. Did you do that or did it come with slot ?
