Starting work on a Stargazer resto so thought I'd start a thread on this one. Guy had it in the garage for 30+ years with the glass off. She is one dirty girl! Clock starts now!

Very worthy title to restore. If you get into painting please post the colors you utilize. Pantone if that's the way you roll .
Hope you get lots snow days to have time to get underway.

Looks like a new pf is in order, removed the plastics and started vacuuming and paint started lifting everywhere. For now, I'll make a list of all the parts to order.
