Hi, I believe you will find the common answer to be no and very little.

The reason being, it's a ton of work, I mean a ton, to gut the boat and lay down new stringers, transom and a floor. Then your left with a boat powered by an OMC, which they do not make anymore and some parts are hard to or impossible to find. $100 bucks....you did ok, part her out and move on. That's my .02

The fact you have a running, hard to find parts for drive train may actually work to your advantage... in the form of higher part prices if you decide to part it out.

Wouldn't be my first choice for a resto project mainly due to the OMC drivetrain.
