I have a 1964 85 HP Mercury Outboard that I am thinking about selling. It was given to me and I really don't have any interest in fixing it. It is not running and the person that gave it to me said that he was the second owner and the motor was only ran in fresh water. It has good compression and was told that it ran about 6 years ago but needs a timing belt, new stator, and some of the wires have been chewed through by mice. I honest don't know much about these motors so any info would be greatly appreciated.

That would be an old inline six, right? I am not sure of the cost of the new ignition parts, for that vintage of a motor. I would expect in the low hundreds of dollars.
