Any of you guys seen or heard of this? a 17' lonestar aluminum with a aluminum cabin? If there's issues, think it will be as easy to restore as the other aluminums?

No year listed for boat or motor. Boat could be 50 years old?

I see other listings for 1958 Lonestar aluminums.

Looks to me like the cabin was an add on. If this is true it looks like that boat would be unstable and top heavy . . . just a guess on my part.

Ayuh,... I rather doubt the cabin is original,... looks homemade...
And,...
I'd love to see somebody put a 24' boat on That trailer...

That trailer is "just" big enough for that boat, I wouldn't put an 18' on it.

The hull is original, but the cabin has been added by someone other than Lone Star.

Lone Star did in fact make several models with aluminum hardtops or cabins, but the one you have shown is not one of them. Personally I would have to pass on this boat.
