Man, you've done a lot of polishing! Looks really, really nice. =D> =D> =D>

What are you cleaning/polishing with?

BTW:
I pulled up your boat again last night; looking at the sides and body lines; the way the seats are put in, etc... Studying every little detail. I'm still trying to help you figure out what she is, so you know for sure. I'd want to know, is she were mine.

I used mothers mag &aluminum polish.

Here are some better pics of different parts of the boat.

Mother's is what I've used as well. Good stuff. It's looking really good! =D> As one of the other members on here would say, "Shiny is purdy"! :LOL2:

I saw a boat very similar to yours on CL. It's a Feathercraft. I am still not sure what yours is, but here is the link so you can compare for yourself. At first, I thought perhaps she is a LS, but the closer I looked at the body lines and the rub rail, I don't think she is. And, since you didn't find a SN stamped in the back of the hull, that tells me she is not a LS. Whatever she is, she's a diamond in the rough! :mrgreen:

That looks to be similar, but it is probably a different year. Maybe older. The handle on the back is on the corner piece (Made all together).i say handle and not handles because one is gone. I would like to replace it if i could find a matching one.

Ebay! I've bought all kinds of stuff on there. It's the best place to find "old" parts.

The wood on your seats appears to still be in pretty good condition. Is it? If it is, perhaps you could just lightly sand it and clear it with 3-4 coats of spar urethane to protect it. Just a thought.....
