I bought it from an older person and he said it has only been run twice and it is in excellent condition. Can anyone tell me the age. Roy 1963 to 1965. It's probably not air cooled if it's this old, these were West Bend motors labeled for Montgomery Wards. If it's air cooled, it would be a later Eska or Clinton built motor. Rob |

Thanks so much for the information. On the Original owners Manual it
says Air Cooled . Like I said it has only been used twice. How much do you think its worth? Thanks Roy |

Thanks Roy There aren't enough of them sold to establish a reliable price. Check eBay, but $75-$150 for obsolete equipment of this genre is about it. It might make a nice kicker for a canoe or small jon boat until it breaks down, then maybe it's a display or mantle piece. If you can identify the powerhead(usually a Tecumseh AV-520), you may be able to get parts for the motor. Keep the gears lubed, too. Check the manual, as there may still be a water pump/impeller, even air cooled outboards often had water cooled exhaust legs. Rob |
