Something Different

Post by Collector Inspector »

This is on Ebay UK.

Not a Seagull but something interesting as per what people do to get an outboard.

Have a close look. Many of us will see where the engine came from and subsequent modification.

A couple of days for your comments then I will tell what I think has been done.

Nicely done actually.

I speak only for the power head......................bottom end eludes me.

I can tell about the leg but I've no idea about the power head!
I love the 10600/145 turns!!!

Interesting, the second one is a villiers power head grafted onto a seagull leg, possibly from a lawnmower?

the first seems to be a villiers mark 6 that has had the fins removed and a home made water jacket added on, plus a home made exhaust adaptor to the leg. with the whole thing then grafted onto an outboard leg. Looks like a decent job.

Interesting job that first one.
