Ive got an oldie ...need to take a pic of it.....i know nothing about it so maybe you can chime in....i think its a 7hp...will post it soon
|
yup I do.....I love antique boats and motors...that waterwitch is awesome! did you restore these? or bought them like that? definitely some top notch restorations...
I mainly collect old mercurys from 50's and the early 60's white merc's, also have a waterwitch and a british seagull....hopefully soon I will be building my shop so I can restore them...when I had a garage I didnt have time to do the restores, now that I have time I dont have the place to do it!!:pissed: |
I have an uncle that basically has a warehouse of restored antiques at his farm. He has a few old motors. Pretty cool to look at.
|
i really dont know too much about. ive polished em up a lil but must were refimished when i get em. i got into it because a guy owed me money and he gave me a few to get me off his back
|
Very nice pieces Pox!
|
Nice.....have friend who is paralyzed from the waist down, he collects & restores old outboards, I love to see them before & after....he's got some of the old white mercs & a couple of wizards & neptunes.
|
Very nice i would love to have a few of them myself
|
I've seen the one in the last pic and the picture does it NO justice. Somebody did one heckuva job restoring that thing!
|
I have an old Martin 60. It is in great shape. Very few hours on it. My father in law bought it new and didn't use it. It needs some restoration. I found it hanging in one of his old barns along with an old Johnson that has never been started.

There was a guy who owned a shrimp shop in Cameron, Don Bailey, who had dozens of old antique outboards all around his shop mounted up high on the walls.
Hurricane Rita took the whole shop. |
The Neptune Mighty Mite. I had one of those but when I went away in the Navy it disappeared. So did my 8' aluminum boat. Oh well.
|
Very nice Mike! I love looking at those old motors
|

He says it's early 1900's. Not sure of the exact yr. Evinrude 2cyclinder 2stroke. He's got a bunch of antique motors, not just outboards.
