Take a 4' straight edge with you when you go to look at it. If you can find a 6' straight edge, that's even better. Lay it along the hull bottom just forward of the transom on all six hull panels and look for hook (concavity) in the hull panels. Rumor has it there was a mold being used for the 23s in the late 80s that had a hook on one side. If the starboard panels are consistent with the port side panels, you're good to go. If there's a hook on one side, the boat will heel to the other side when on plane and will be difficult to trim.

At the least use it to work on the price. Honestly I don't think you can buy a 23 cheap enough. I want one very badly but the money it would take to turn one around keeps me a looker and not a taker.

Kudos to you though if you've found a diamond in the rough. If that bracket is done right, floor isn't soft you're doing pretty good.
