I recently acquired a motor I have been after for a while. A 1958 Evinrude Fastwin 18. My grandfather had one when I was young and I have many great memories of him and his boat and motor. This is NOT my grandfathers actual Evinrude, but it is the cleanest one I have found to date. It is free, but has been in storage for about 60 years, so I put some Deep Creep in the cylinders and will let it set for a few days before I start peeking inside.
I have attached a few photos along with a picture of my grandfathers boat and motor at his island camp on Ambajejus Lake in about 1960.
Boy o boy, what an amazing find, and for free? Beautiful
