I don't think it's an OMC (most of their boats were pretty distinct designs - you can see them here: http://ultimate.com/omc-boats/) - Glasspar is what I'm thinking, but to be honest that's a wild guess.

Sharp looking boat though. It should be very pretty when done. Nice job & welcome to iboats.

Well I guess that's one way to replace a transom :eek:

There were literally hundreds of companies making small fiberglass runabouts in the 50's and 60's with some only producing a handful of boats. The molds were also often passed around from company to company. Definitively identifying this boat is going to be extremely difficult.
