The salvage yard I work at hauled in a old Glastron bass boat of some sort with a old Johnson V6 on the back. The hull has a pad but looks like it has sat exposed for YEARS. This old tub worth anything or is the motor good for anything? I'll get some pics on wednesday if there's any interest. I was curious what model it might be or how to Identify this hull?

Does that mean it's a special edition or something..............comes with it's own slice of paradise.......beach sand and palm trees.
Seriously post pics.

The decals on the cowling did not list a HP, but it was a older V6 for sure. Motor was all white and might have had the thin red and black striped style decals, they were pretty faded. I'll get pics tomorrow :thumbsup:

Hey John here, I would be interested in the boat haul Let me know. Don't need the trailer; don't necessarily need the motor. I really enjoy doing glass work on them old boats.
