History: I bought this 1436 boat, trailer, and 69 model evinrude 9.5 (no longer have that motor, now I have an 18hp motor) for $250 about a year ago from an old man that my friend worked with in the quarry's. The boats i.d. tag is gone so I have no idea what year/make it is. The old man said he bought it new back in 65, but can't remember the make. It sat in his field for about 6 years and to my surprise it didn't leak a bit. I've had the boat for about 2 years. I built a front deck on it from treated lumber and it looked great. I needed the deck b/c I usually fished alone and desperately needed the weight to keep the front end down. Now I've decided to go all alum. So here's the first step- removing the old wood in the transom and putting new marine grade and painting it with some industrial paint. Lucky for me I manage a paint store so no searching for this stuff.
Here's some pics of the boat:
