What's the best way to sell my old motors?

[mzhammond]

I have two old outboard motors that I would like to sell but I don't know how to reach people who would be interested. Can anyone provide any advice? I have a Johnson Sea Horse 5 1/2 hp motor (1957, I think), with gas can and gasline, Model CD14, serial #1593235. Its red and white. The other is an Evenrude Zephyr, probably from the 1940's. There is a lot of writing on the housing but I can't read much of it. The serial # is 4381-00350, and the tag says "1935 Canadian patent". If anyone has any info. on this motor, I would appreciate hearing about it. Both motors seem to have all of the knobs/handles, etc, and were run within the last 10 years. They seem to be in very good condition. How do I determine a fair price and where can I advertise them? Thanks for any help.

There are so many of these old outboards around that I personally have found it difficult to give them away unless they are proven to be running and in mint condition.

Where can you advertise them? I think you just did. But go here http://www.aomci.org/cgi-bin/adshow.pl

Hello motorowner.....I'll be moving your post to General Outboard Discussion since it's not a repair topic. You might look into iboats Thrifties area. You can put them up for sale there if you wish.<br /><br />And welcome to iboats!!
