Re: Value for johnson AB-25

Frankly, I just don’t get it. This should be the frigging easiest question in the world to answer, and nobody does it.

His post started out "I purchased this motor today at an auction", then later in the same paragraph he asked " My questions is what is the value f this motor In present condition?"

Answer was in his own post- ITS WORTH WHAT YOU PAID FOR IT!!!!!" He posted the answer before asking the question.

How about instead of dreaming up all the "what-if" and "best case scenario" BS, why doesn’t somebody just give the man a straight answer?

It’s not rocket science, guys. Don’t worry about being politically correct. Hell knows I sure don’t. And you can call me an ass for saying so, and it won’t bother me any.

And I’ll add that Mikeinri needs to provide better photographs than the ones posted if he wants honest opinions and accurate assessments of what he’s got there. A full length view from BOTH sides of the motor would be a minimum.

I have an AB-25. In fact, I think I have two of them. One might be a BN, I don’t quite remember, as I’ve owned several brass lower unit Johnson motors. I bought an AB-25 off Fleabay several years back, and I paid about $350 US for it at a time when it was common to see the aluminum lower unit A and A-25’s going for about 25-to-30% less than that amount, so use that for what you will.

Hope this helps. but I won’t lose sleep over it if it don’t…..

Best,
