G'day idddent,
I'm loving this thread.
We see some great guitars on this forum, but this is the first time I have been struck with guitar envy. I guess I just love a seemingly lost cause. Keep it coming mate.
Goodonya ...Mark.

It's like the movie "Christine" but with a guitar.

In that case, step back and say "Ok, show me what you can do"
(Just be careful it doesn't kill your other guitars :D)

You did a fine job I would love to hear a sound clip. I love it that you kept the guitar looking like you did. :D

I absolutely loved this thread! Very nice job. I would like to know more about how you found the guitar, if you found any history about it and how it came to be left outside and allowed to get in such bad shape!
