Re: Year and worth

MG's right on. There are simply many more old motors out there than there are collectors to acquire them. Just because it's old doesn't make it rare. <br /><br />That said, you have one of the better little fishing motors ever built. They're easy to get running, easy to find general maintenance parts for, easy to work on, and they're smooth, quiet, easy starting motors. That will likely make it worth more to Joe-Angler who just wants to leave the oars alone and putt on over to his favorite fishing hole without spending $500-$1000 on a basic kicker. If the motor has been tuned up (new coils, points, condeners, waterpump impeller, etc.) then you MIGHT break even and make a couple bucks... Better yet - keep it and save it as a get-me-home motor, or give it to a son/daughter/niece/nephew/etc. who wants to putt around in a Jon boat...<br />- Scott
