I'd say it's well and alive! Took me some stand in replacement parts but overall seems to run well now! Not bad for a free motor!

That's a classic worth more than you know.

When our Dads and Grandpas went fishing in the early 1940's many rented rowboats. When they came back from the war they bought outboards. Johnson production resumed in 1946. When the TD-20 went out of production in 1949, it is said that it was the highest production volume outboard ever.

The greatest generation couldn't afford a new car until the mid 1950 's. I believe the 1956 Chevy holds the record of most cars ever manufactured.
