    Hey Guys,
    Thanks so much! I was pretty sure the aficionados here could educate me. The cowl appears to be from a Golden Javelin, so I am thinking a previous owner damaged the lower unit of his Javelin and found a compatible Evinrude and swapped out. I am thinking I may try to check the lower unit for damage and get it turning freely, then check compression and spark to see if a restore is in her future. Thank you Dave and Frank for your knowledge.
