Is it worth parting out?

[MiamiU]

I have been offered a 1958 or 59 18hp minus the lower unit for $50. Is it worth it to part it out or would I be wasting my time?

I just sold a 55 hp sea horse parts motor on line for $50, two days later the person was selling seperate parts off it. the total for all the parts was 400.00. so I would say keep trying somebody neads the parts.

sorry didn't read first part of post very well. If you like selling things then go for it, what brand is it also be prepaird you may have it around awhile tell you find the right buyer.

It's an evinrude. I have not gone to look at it yet, just going off what I am told about it. If it's something that it will be hard to find buyers for the parts, than I am not sure I want to mess with it. But if I can sell the parts quickly, I might give it a shot.
