That's what I found, stickers are different, that's all.
I met this ol' timer at the campground over the weekend & he tells me about his old boat that he junked out but said he kept the "mercruiser piece" that goes in the back.
So when I drive over to his farm to look at it yesterday I find they cut the transom with a sawzall around that "mercruiser piece" & it's all sitting there bolted to a pallet. Engine & all. From pulleys to prop, the whole works. I told him all I really needed was the lower unit & I'd give him $100 for it. He says, well that's seems fair enough but you have to take the whole thing.
So I've got a little 302 that's clean as a whistle for sale.
They winterized it just like they did every winter & it's been in a heated garage since they pulled it out 2 yrs ago. And they are farmers so all maintenance was performed like clockwork & all parts came from the local Napa store.
I usually don't get those "good" deals like that but as they say even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now & then.
Thanks guys.
Jim
