    Looking for old building instructions

    Hi All
    I have aquired an old Krick U boot. It is in need of some major TLC.
    Basically I have the top and bottom but no guts, fittings, or anything that would make it go.
    I am thinking of doing an article on restoring an old POS submarine to get into the hobby cheaply.
    Plus I always thought it was a cool boat. Sometimes the simpler the operating system the more fun running the boat can be.

    Well before I keep rambling what I am looking for is a copy of the original instructions.
    BTW. This is the old kit that has the carved wood bottom and plastic top. Send me an email if you can help. Thanks, BD.

            Looks like I will have some scans and photos of the construction coming. Excellent
            Figuring the way they outfitted the sub would not be rocket science, but I would like to follow the way they did it closely.
            And the original instructions are the way to go.
            But I am sure a few modern tweaks will be in order.
            Thanks Don. BD.

              Only a few?!?

              I think we know you better than that, BD!
