    Not enough motor left or clear enough picture to peg. A hands on inspection would tell a lot
    more but perhaps not enough to be sure if label was Mercury, Sea King or Wizard.
    It is a 1940 or 41 prewar motor if clamp is original to motor.Wizard gold is on postwar
    WD series. Prewar paint came out of same bucket for all three brands. 1941 models had
    leg tag on Portside while postwar models had tag on Starboard side. No tag showing on
    Starboard side photo.
    I would go $20 maybe more if powerhead is ok just to have parts on hand. Shame of it
    all is it left the factory complete in A1 condition. I have seen prewar motors ready to run
    and more often ready to scrap.
