70’s Thumb Refurb

This project had been on my plate for quite some time.
Original 1970’s Sunset Thumb refurbishment (with Microgroove bottom!)
It needs some tender loving care and will ride again.

    I think the thumbs with bonzer bottoms and fin set ups would have advantages over a single fin. but it is always neat to have archive boards to ponder

    Hey did they call those micro grove boards Oscillators back then?

    A demo thumb is a great idea love to try one

    There was a Sunset model called the Oscillator that featured microgrooves
    .
    This particular Thumb would not be a good demo.
