1997 Astro restoration continued

Bob Smith · 09-22-08, 10:53 AM

This weekend I built the generation III rod organizer for the Astro, removed the old Hummingbird flasher (no longer worked) and installed a plate so I could mount my new water pressure gage, cleaned the console, toe panel, and trolling motor and applied Mother's Back to Black (awesome stuff!)
The old rod organizer (gen II).

The Gen II rod tubes remain

The new Rod organizer (Gen III), the holes will be lined with rubber tubing

The new plate installed on console, also note the shiny black appearance of the 13 year old console

A few "before pictures of the Trolling motor and toe panel

And the post cleaning and Back to Black applied

In about a week the motor will be back on her and she'll be ready for the lake.
