This is my other toy, my 1951 Chris Craft Holiday. I found her an Craigslist last June. The interior was removed and she had been sitting in a field for a while. They kept putting covers on her as she was pretty clean for setting for a number of years. I reinstalled the interior just so I could see what was missing. Turns out not to much, a couple chrome pieces for the flooring and a few slats of wood to stiffen the interior but the rest is all there. I have never met the PO before as I bought the boat through a broker, that is a whole other story. I am going to meet them this Saturday, they were the second owner of the boat and they said they had motor manuals and other boat stuff I could pick up when I come down so maybe I'll get the missing parts.
