Well, I'm selling my childhood engine for sale. I was born in '69 and my Dad bought this engine as a dinghy for the sailboat three years later in 1972. We've had it ever since, and it sat in our garage for many years. My parents passed, and I've had it at my new house for 10 years now.
I cleaned it up years ago, repacked the bottom gearbox, changed the conversion needle (read the FAQ on this site), and she started up on the second pull. This guy had the same experience:

This engine is fantastic. Ran it for a bit on my Avon. That's for sale too, but the plastic oar coverings are shot. Other than that, this setup is a full kit. Made April 1972 (F157D2).
It's available in Toronto, Canada. Not sure how to ship these things.
I have more pics, so just let me know and I'll forward. Please place a bid on the item(s).
Cheers
