Nice to have the sponson and rear hull floor structure off. Its been slow going …I shouldn’t have bragged about the lack of rust on her…its been a challenge to get stuff removed without further damage you can see the rust on the main support beam from the forward rear hull. This is also the support for the .30 / .50 pedestal mount , so quite critical
you can see a light black circle where the base plate for the pedestal weapons mounts up
