Early 70s Seafari Questions

[benemack]

Hey guys. I've been a long time reader of various posts, and now I'm a new member. My father and I co-own a 72 or 73 Seafari. I can't remember exactly which year it is. I'd like any details anyone could offer up on this year/model combo. Mine looks to have originally had the portside galley seat, but has been converted over to the "Todd" style pedestal. I'd like to look at restoring it back to the galley set-up. Is it worth doing? Anyone have a bulkhead door that they've replaced that is willing to part with the original lock/latch? I'm also looking for replacement forward hatch adjusters. And, lastly, I need some replacement knobs for the windshield brackets. Mine currently still work for the most part, but one or two are worn out or don't work. Any ideas on covering replacing the "paneling" used on either side of the bulkhead? The sun's basically cooked mine. I was thinking of trying to replace it, or sanding it smooth and painting over it with probably white boat enamel--Interlux Brightsides? I'll try to post some pics once the weather up here in near the Cape breaks some time this spring... Thanks in advance for any tips/advice, etc.
