I haven't had time yet to look at it close but the title had Lon on it. I will go over it better today and get back to you. I have to figure out how to put a photo on this thread. Never did that. Lol

Good for you. Flat of vee bottom ??  Its nice for the back bays when you pick your days.Great lake boat too with a electric motor fishing shinners. The price was right.
Raise it off the ground put some water in,mark the level and check for leaks. JB Weld takes care of the that.
Good Luck. t^

I believe Pops Soul is correct (Lone Star ).Inside original paint would be a deep green .Even @ 58' there should be a nomenclature plate with weight and HP ratings ,plus manufacturer's name ..

Does it have tapered wing's to the transom??

If it's a Lone Star check here:

Didn't see any 13' listed in that year. Good luck.
