peevee Posted August 1, 2017 Report Posted August 1, 2017 I could swear I saw a write up around here where someone did it step by step, it looked like a hassle but manageable. I'll see if I can find it.

Bob_Belville Posted August 1, 2017 Report Posted August 1, 2017 There a tank reseal specialist in Fort Lauderdale: http://www.wetwingologistseast.com/ If you visit him and are candid about what you're doing with your project I suspect he'd give you some advice that would save you a lot of inventing the wheel. He might convince you to let him do it.
flyhigh603 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Report Posted August 2, 2017 Gonna be sad to see her go , but Paul got a fantastic deal in my opinion. She is in great shape and runs like a top

I may be a bit biased, but Mooney restoration projects are cool as hell and I could look/talk about them 10x longer than the newest Acclaim. 1
