Help with old Larson boat

[MF67]

Hi, newbie here to this great forum!

I was hoping someone could help me date and/or provide comments/experience with the following Larson boat.
It has a sticker on the side that says "All American".
The motor is an 1958 Evenrude Fifty Star Flite V Four.
I need advice about what to use to clean up the boat/paint and how to clean and wax the underneath as well, etc. Thinking about putting some of that boat carpet in it as well. What Im supposed to do with that old canopy?
I need to make up or get some seats for it too.

Thank You!

From looking at the Larson website it appears to be a 58 or 59 Larson. The seats are identical to the ones pictured in the 58 and 59 pamplets.

As far as bringing back the finish you should try some mothers restorer way. It will take a lot of elbow grease but you should be able to get it back. You might want to invest in a good power buffer!
