I just had to share this with someone....
I was over my g/f's dads house telling him about the boat i just picked up, and how i cannot get the engine to run right (1250 SS Merc) He tells me he has something that i could take home with me. We go out to the shed and he uncovers a old Merc 650, I couldn't believe he told me that I could have it. SO i brought it home and pulled the cover off it and this thing is like brand NEW, it's a 1966 650 black and chrome one.
So my plan is I'm going to pull the big inline 6 off my boat and plop this 650 on so atleast I can have a boat to get out on the lake, instead of looking at it set in the garage. With the 650 on im gonna throw the 6 holer as i call it in the truck and have an old school marine shop get it running correctly.
Anyway I had to share the news
