Has any one ever heard of a Bundy or Bundy marine. All I can find is the info on motor. Made in Italy. This was a give-me that no one else wanted to restore to running cond. I made a head gasket out of .062 copper sheet.But have Elec. problems.<br />And no electrical apptitude.<br /><br /> James<br /><br />------------------

Re: Bundy ???

Fish...let me quote what Peter Hunn wrote about Bundy in his "Old Outboard Book":<br /><br />"The Detroit-based Bundy Tubing Company imported a line of outboards from its Milan, Italy subsidiary. Bundy motors were actively marketed in the United States from about 1961 to 1964. I have heard tales of brand-new/old stock Bundy 40-horse outboards (complete with fuel tank and a few spare parts) being offered in a Connecticut marina as late as the mid-1980s. Although clearance-sale priced comparable to a fishing motor, these particular "never been run" rigs drew little more than customer conversation."<br /><br />Don't know what value this is to you but it is rather interesting...<br /><br />You might go to aomci.org to see if there's any worthwhile info to be had there.<br /><br />Walt

Re: Bundy ???

Walt I did find a advertisvent for Bundy motors on ebay. That info was found by a member on the antique boat motor club, you <br />were telling me about, and passed it on to my self. It is not what I need' but was vary <br />interesting none the less.
