That’s the sort of motor that all of us look for; maybe a few scars here and there but over-all a very nice very clean original which has most likely never been messed with.

They are only original ONCE.

Go through the mechanicals as needed and has been stated above…..be very gentle with the paint and decals.

Those motors will idle down to a crawl…..they are famous for that.

If you can….try and get some information as to it’s use; who bought it….where they bought it….who’s kid got to go fishing with Dad ….that sort of stuff. It’s kinda nice that a motor’s story goes with it.
