The boat is a 1957 Starcraft Speed Queen.
IMHO what you have is a 1957 StarCraft Super Constellation. It is the third picture from the left in the top row of photos in the 1958 brochure. The names of the models of the boats do not all correspond with the pictures. You have to study the straight down drawing of your seating arrangement and the write up of dimensions and material under the boat name to identify your boat. IMHO. It is pictured without a windshield and all were made with mediterian green accent paint.
According to the 1958 literature,the seats, dash, and transom are mahogany, thus explaining how come the nails and screws wont give up. The gunnels are red oak.
I used a putty knife to get under the heads and then a cats paw like the one Waterman shows, using the putty knife to protect the aluminum. I actually got all of mine out and reused them- believe it or don't. Good luck with the swap around with the wood. disassembly, refinishing and reassembly were uber time consuming. More pictures of your project please. Heres a before and after to show others what your up against. Never saw another one until yours. Press on!
