Old Johnson Outboard Motor

[kforthjr]

My father recently received a Johnson Outboard Motor and was wondering if his internet-inclined son could find out how old it is. The Model# is 1R70R and the seriel# is E3173828. It is a Johnson 1.5 HP Outboard Motor and it looks pretty old. If anyone has any information please reply.
