What is it worth?

[JohnsonLC]

I have a chance to buy a Force 50 outboard. Model 507F8D, SS# 1397. It hasn't been run for years but supposedly was running ok when last used.. I can tell it is a 2 cycle, looks as if it has been used a lot but not neccessarily abused. I know being a 2 cycle limits it's use in many areas and therefore probably not a smart move. What is it worth?

Re: What is it worth?

Looking at your numbers I believe it is a 1988 motor. It's worth is determined by what someone is willing to pay in cash money, however, me personally, not knowing the history of the motor and the type of use it has incurred over the years, well I'd be hard pressed to go over $100.00. (That is IF the motor turns over freely and has decent compression.) But, hey I'm a cheapskate and make no bones about it! Good luck...

$200-$700 depending on condition.

Depends where you are located.
