Evinrude Fleetwin - Help Needed to ID it!

[Steve1970]

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I am not at all boat or motor knowledgeable. I need help with 2 things:

1) Identify an old Evinrude Fleetwin outboard motor (specs below)
2) Trying to find out what it might be worth and where I can sell it.

Motor specs:
Fleetwin 7.5 Hp Aquasonic, Serial Number: 7518-17381
Says "Whispering Power"

While in relatively good condition, I have no idea if anything has been replaced. All I know is that it has to be at least 30 years old. I could get good photos if necessary.

1955 7.5 hp "http://www.outboardbooks.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=models.main&year=1955&ID=59633"
price depends of condition, and if it runs. cost $200 to get it dependable, if the head and lower are good. value 100-350.

In its current non-running "I don't know anything about it" condition I wouldn't pay more than a $100. Condition is everything, but unless it is running and has been tested you don't know what other parts it may need.

A buyer has to add the price of a full tune up and reseal kit to the asking price so don't expect much for your old motor. I say tune it yourself and run it.
