Re: ENJOY some old ( OMC) steel brought to life VIDEO
Yep' addictive and fun, & the reason I got into it is folks were just throwing them away..(the 1975 40 in the vid I just picked it up about a month ago at the dump (new points, cleaned the carb replaced the pump) runs great! I mostly end up giving them away to friends who in return like to fish and bring me some of their catch in return or stuff from their garden.. I also trade some of the mid 80's & 90's motors for older stuff that I like, I have always fiddled with mechanical stuff as long as I can remember,, And was lucky enough to befriend a fellow who has now passed away who was by far the best outboard tech. I have ever known. I'm semi retired so I have a bit of time to pursue this hobby and tho allot of what comes my was is salty junkers I have gotten a few nice old gems.
