I picked these up last summer and rebuilt them over the winter. The '58 Sportwin came as a complete but locked up motor, while the '60 came in a box with some assembly required. Both got rebuilt powerheads, and the '60 also had the lower unit rebuilt as I discovered that the gears were shot after I ran it the first time and it had a rhythmic chunk-chunk-chunk sound to it. All of bronze bushings on the propshaft were hogged out - VERY sloppy. Fortunately the pinion bushing was not bad, so I was able to use the innards from another unit and return it to service.

The '58 is on my 12-foot Duranautic which snaps right along, while the '60 is on a 14-foot Starcraft which planes off, but you can really feel the bigger boat.
