    Evinrude’s bread and butter during the 1960’s. I guess you already know that it is Selectric Shift. Must use correct oil in the lower unit. The push button switch in the control is rare and expensive (and somewhat failure prone. The junction box on the transom is prone to flooding on a boat such as that, and the voltage regulator is in that box. Also expensive.

    Overall, a great motor, but condition is everything.

    What is with that cobblrd-up Morse throttle control cable?

    EDIT: Well beat me with a stick. The 1967 didn’t have a junction box, did it? That’s a good thing in your favor.
