1978 14' glastron project

[LilRedNeckGirl]

I must be crazy, a 1978 glastron tri hull, gutted out as a starting point. Bought it for the outboard on it and kinda let the hull grow on me. Its solid in all beams and transom, so Im thinking it might be fun to restore. Any one know the HP rating on this vessel? {1978 14 foot glass tri hull} It came with a 75 Johnson. Also, are there any parts out there, such as the wind shield center glass, bow rider rail, etc?

I believe the max HP for that boat is 100.

The smallest T in 78 was the T152, to 70 Hp.

Hey there, are you still looking for parts? I have a T152 here and not sure what to do with it. I was told the engine ran 2 years ago (1977-1978 Mercury 850 85HP) so I was try to sell the engine with the boat and trailer. I posted on a different thread about what the engine is worth but no responces. I was told the hull has a crack in it but really can't find anything on the hull, above the rub rail there is a triangle crack/hole about 2" accross. The interior is in pretty good shape as pictured but it still needs a bit of work to make her water worthy again.
