Hi i recently purchased a Johnson 5.5 seahorse and was wondering if someone could help me with the year this was made the only numbers i can find on the engine are 308208 and 339372.

I would also appreciate it if someone could send me a link to somewhere that sells spare parts as it has bits missing :( and some schematic drawings would also be great i cant seem to find any anywhere on the net.

Regards Chesney

Through 1955 they were green
65-58 were red/maroon/holiday bronze, whatever you want to callit.
59-up were white

Go to http://www.old-omc.de/ and match up your colors / trim.decals.
