Thanks Guys. I have been looking for the right Javelin for 2 years before I found this one. I checked with several sites that restore vintage outboards and they wanted $4500 for a restored 57 Javelin! The seller was a very nice guy who really was reluctant to let it go. My delivery driver that picked up the motor for me and transported it from Porter, Texas to my home in Arlington, TN was so worried about keeping the motor free of scratches, he laid it on the backseat of this truck and wrapped it in several blankets for the 577 mile trip. He had it tucked in like a baby. 🙂 He delivered it to me on Tuesday right in the middle of a torrential downpour. it truly is a work of art. I only found 2 small scratches on the entire motor. She is cherry for sure. The seller had some outfit in Canada do the total restoration.
