[QUOTE="satx78247, post: 426748, member: 11019"] Friends, Do any of you have a t least ONE (hopefully COLOR) quality photograph of the 1952 to 1955 Lone Star 14-foot ADMIRAL, that shows the interior arrangement & exterior "color scheme" (The hull is currently painted "two-tone" green but I have NO idea if that's the original paint or NOT.) I've found the Admiral (I think that it's an un-cataloged UTILITY, as it has NO windshield, NO holes where a windshield once was nor any sign that the 3 bare aluminum benches had seat-backs or were ever upholstered.) & I cannot find anything but "artist's rendering" of the early Admiral hulls, that were made from 1952-55. - I found the bare hull "sitting out in the weeds", about 10 miles south of San Antonio. My research indicates that the last owner (A Mr. Willie Ray from Floresville, TX) passed away about 2000. (I already have a Johnson 25HP electric start OB that is suitable as power.) IF I'm going to spend money restoring the Admiral 14, I want to do it CORRECTLY. THANKS, satx [/QUOTE]
