Period outboards for sale
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2009 10:06 am
Pics to follow, but these outboards are for sale from my collection.
Bought over a period of 5 years in order to use on current and future projects; they were all better looking than the normal rubbish on ebay and were worth saving from the BBQ people...
The OMCs are within the mechanical abilities of most people, with a reasonably basic tookit and the Clymer and Seloc manuals available. Parts and spares are available off the shelf in this country, but are far cheaper in the US when currency exchange rates are good!
Sadly I have little time to play any longer and would prefer that it be on the water rather than in my garage, so...
