Archimedes vs Penta

Exactly the same engines, but a different name.
Both engines are made by Elektrolux Stockholm Sweden.
I have restored the Archimedes and left the Penta as she is.
The Penta PA-20 is a none runner with some work. No 51520613
The Archimedes S-20 runs fine behind my dinghy. No 01520437
Both engines are a massive 2Hp and probably build around 1950
If anybody can identify them I will be very pleased.

Two beautiful machines! How many different outboards do you have in your collection? Seagull, Anzani, Elektrolux and ......?
