Ok, ok, so I've been slacking A LOT on my restoration project. It's a 1956 Chris Craft Outboard Express Cruiser. Well, I'm taking 2 weeks off work so that I can get it done.<br /><br />All I have left is to get the paint done (about 60% left), install new control cables, cut out a new hatch, and re-attach the hardware.<br /><br />Today I got the motor (a 1956 Johnson 30) cleaned up and ready to test fire. It took a little longer that I expected. When I got the lower unit off, this is what I found:<br /><br />
<br /><br />Those are PUMPKIN SEEDS! Looks like a mouse used my outboard as his stash!<br /><br /> 
<br /><br />Anyways - just wanted to post an update and I'll put up some more pics after I get some of that painting done.
