SLIGHT CHANGE IN PLAN . . .

The more WE (guess we are in it together now) have thought about The Hot Mess we have decided to wait to pressure wash the interior. The interior is mostly dry now, most of the bad crud gone and we would need to do it again anyway after the interior is removed. So to keep from doing it twice and to preserve what’s left it will wait. At least now one can breathe inside it.

Here are a few interior photos as Hot Mess sits now. He will sit idle for the most part since the 1948 Liner has priority. When time permits we will tinker with what we can on it, like sealing a few leaks and buying a few parts needed when the good deals come along.

Still can’t believe the shower curtain is in one piece and not crumbling. It is very pliable, all hardware intact and I’m told it’s as rare as hens teeth. I’ll need to make a pattern soon!
