Is this a Peterborough?

Got a line on this canoe....looks good and sound. Maybe a bit of cleanup and take off the glass and re-canvas I think.
I believe it is 12-14 feet in length. I do not have any further specs or ser. number right now. It's a 5 hour drive!
Looks like a featherweight. narrow ribs etc. Would make a nice puddle jumper...
What would be a reasonable price in this condition based on the pics?

Any help is appreciated!

I recently picked up a 15' Old Town 1959 for $600. Needed cane, varnish, paint. It did not have 'glass, ever. I'd think twice about 'glass.
 
Looks like a Pete or Chestnut thats been worked, decks carved up etc. Note that it likely had a shoe keel before that deep one since the holes that are gooped look offset. What Dave said, glass can be a real hassle, especially if its been laid on thick. Not a featherweight, likely a trapper or such. For a 5hr drive unless its free i'd take a pass - not for a featherweight mind you, just on this one. At $1.25/litre here in Ontario, cost to retrieve would be around 180.00 in my Sienna van!
