I would like to restore my sweet little 1971 Evinrude 50hp to its original glory. Could someone please post a picture of one of these with its original paint and colors?

I've got the same problem, the "green" is acutally called johnson 389 gold and is no longer available through tempo. The only option I've found is through NAPA as a custom mix, at least they have the color chart.

OK, I went to Walmart and bought a couple of spray cans of rustoleum.

Looks a lot better now doesn't it?
