    If the model below is correct a 1954, but it seems the color and pattern seem like for a later year. 1956 to 1957????

    If the price is right and it has good compression, I would buy it. You can put OMC coil cores on the laminates. Points and condensers are still available. Those have nice power for there size. Easy to work on. You can easily make your own gaskets!!!!

    Some link to assist with your motor.
