    There are a few companies that advertise
    outboard restorations so I guess they
    would qualify as “Professional” but are
    limited to the 50-60’s motors. Motors of
    your vintage and condition are often put
    back in running condition and preserved
    as a survivor. Ones that are restored are
    normally done by the owner. Some have
    the ability to manufacture replacement
    parts while other farm out the work they
    can’t do. Repairing rare magneto ignitions
    if possible is very difficult as well as a
    gas tank replacement if necessary. Your
    motor looks to be in good condition. If
    its just a cosmetic restoration you are
    looking for it could probably be cleaned
    and polished easy enough but you would
    be much better off with someone in the
    hobby that understands what you have.

    A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
