Hi All

This is one of four I bought.

It’s 35″ long with a 10 and 1/2″ beam.

Very shallow Vee bottom.

It had an added on wheelhouse with a fly bridge.

I remove all that and found the original wheelhouse under this !!!

The prop shaft was was 1/8″ and at one time had a IC motor.

Hope someone can help.

Sorry I can’t help Harry but I guess with something like this it is very much a case of make what you want of it. We had a chap in my club who restored a number of models, one actually pulled from a skip, and he rarely even tried to make it look like it had originally. He always managed to maintain a period character though, which gave them a charm. You’ve certainly got a sound hull there to start on, I’m sure she will end up looking the part.
