On most of the old 40hp models, there was a large plate between the transom brackets just under the center of the steering bracket. Also look for a smaller plate that could be attached to the port (left) transom bracket. Either plate would have the model and serial numbers on it.
If no luck, and if the hood hasn't been repainted, provide a few pictures of the hood. The design and paint scheme was never repeated thru the years... this would pinpoint the year.
Describe the engine..... Mechanical or electric shift?.... Straight electric choke, heat tube leading to choke, water hoses leading to choke?
Color of engine.... All white... White & french silver... Light green (Tropical Green)... Dark green (Forest Green).
Go into some detail for us.
