TOPIC: help me identify this boat!!!

im new to this boat restoration stuff. i just bought this boat for $375 and for the life of me can not find any kind of identification tag with model number or serial number. the man i bought off of said it was a 1963 starcraft, but i have posted it on iboats.com and those guys seem to think it maybe an aqua swan or maybe a lonestar. i have some pics so if you could please help me out. thanks!

Looks alot like a Lone Star Malibu c. 1958 particularly in the back. Also see the video.

thanks alot for the reply. It seems that it just might be a lonestar,but the only question i have is that mine measures 16 ft and all i can find malibu's seem to be only 14 ft. thanks again for the help. one more question! did your boat have a model number plate on it some where? i can't seem to find one on mine.

very cool...looks more sleek and thinner than the mailbu though

Looks like a Lone Star of some kind. Nassau maybe?

i was wondering if any of you out there that have a lonestar malibu might be able to take a picture of the rivet holes on the inside of the hull (either side) where the lone star emblem would be. Maybe i could match up the rivet holes i have with your photo and maybe at least i can know for sure what the make is for sure. I would appreciate this if anyone could do this. thanks.
