Okay okay, I know it's old, but its a classic, and lets all admit, it was a cool
looking motor. I couldnt resist when I saw it, and had to have it. I got it and the boat for 100 bucks. Believe it or not, after blowing all the dead ladybugs and mouse nesting out of her, she fired right up with a bit of priming, and is sucking up water through the pump like a dream. Now here's the question? I want to break her down and put new gaskets and seals top to bottom. I have found about 40% of the parts from I-boats, wholesale marine and twin city, is there any one out there who knows where I can go to find more goodies for this old gal? Oh yeah, and by the way, those spark plug door medallions that are impossible to find, well heres a trick I learned. Harley Davidson running light bezels which are an excelent chrome, fit perfectly, and look the biz.
