Re: arro outboard?

Trying not to be rude but an antique needs to be about 100 years old.
It looks like any number of odd ball motors built in the 60s and 70s.and early 80s
I personally wouldn't buy any of them to collect or use.There are folks on here that like them
But I don't think any of them would pay that kind of money even cleaned up and running.
My guess is if comeplete with good compression about $25 would be fair.
If you want a cool old motor with a vast supply of parts,help and manuals check out the 3, 5.5 & 5hp Evinrude/Johnson and Gale motors from the 50s & 60s.

Re: arro outboard?

thanks steelespike, i do have a collection of vintage motors.....no antiques tho. just love my 1950's johnsons. the motor mentioned is an oddball, cant even find any info on the manufacturer. my whole collection is all omc except a champion guide, a gale buccaneer and a gull. ( cant understand why the seller thinks its antique....or collectible.....but it is an oddball!)
