    Slim60 -the serial # you posted(E3532314) would be for a Evinrude . Where was the serial # located, on the metal transom clamp tag or the metal plug on the powerhead? The paint and decals all look like original factory Johnson. Anybody else ever had a Johnson or Evinrude with the E or J first digit on the other brand ,ie E on a Johnson ,J on an Evinrude? Unless the owner swapped powerheads ,it would have been done at the factory ? The serial # should match on the 2 locations, Mine allways have. Just a thought that maybe it was a factory prototype, with the wrong brand designator in the serial #. You have sure got our curiosity going. Just the detective in me ..Thanks for sharing!
