1973? Challenger Mark II info?

[wiredntx]

Help! I just bought my first boat, a Mark II Challenger 15ft. The title says it's a 1973. Anyway, the guy I got it from had made a very feeble attempt to start a restoration - what I mean is he took EVERYTHING off the fiberglass; wiring, steering, lights, anything that was a part of that boat has been removed.
I have absolutely no clue how or where anything goes back, and I cannot find any info anywhere for it.
Can anyone help me, or point me in the right direction???
Thanks much - in advance.....

I live in Western KY and every year when the crappie come in to spawn I ***** about not having a boat. So my wife, believe it or not, bought this boat at a yard sale for 100 bucks. If you're married, or ever have been - you know that I have no choice but to restore it.....hopefully it won't cost as much as the divorce would!
Thanks for the info, and I will post pics later this afternoon. The boat, by the way, was built by TN Valley Fiberglass in Huntsville AL. They closed up shop circa 1982.
