Glastron ID help

[pcmpete]

I just picked up a very cheap Glastron just for the motor, a Ford 302 marine with volvo drive.
Can anyone help me id this boat and after looking at the photos do you think it is worth restoring. If not I will part it out.
Any help would be most welcome.

Not sure of the model. The boat restoration threads would be a good place to post pictures and questions about restoring. My thoughts are that unless you have extensive knowledge of fiberglass and gel coat repair I would pass on restoring it. Looks like it needs stringers, floor, shell and pretty much everything redone. I know it would be beyond my abilities. I've seen people work miracles on worn out, trashed boats so don't let me discourage you. If it were restored it would be quite an accomplishment. I may deserve a flaming for being discouraging.
