1960 Mercury 800 Direct Reverse - need mechanic
 

I recently pulled my grandfathers old Nylox boat out of the Lake Mead,
NV area. Attached of course is a '60 Mercury 800, which has been
sitting for approximately 10 years. I got a quote for a rediculous
amount to rebuild it from a mechanic in North Hollywood, CA. I am
currently looking for a second opinion from a reliable mechanic. Could
someone point me in the right direction?
