Doesn't say the year, but $1200!??!

It's a '71 or older, good luck getting $1200 for that lump!!!

Ouch! I got my running 1961 Merc 50 hp for $400 and it came with a big rolling stand.

Speaking of overpriced outboards, check this one out: http://southbend.craigslist.org/bpo/4932323542.html . 1957 Johnson 10 hp for $1200, but wait, it comes with the pressurized gas tank!

dlatshaw,

Methinks that that price has ONE or possibly TWO too many Zeros.

My RDS-20 (Which at least here in TX isn't easy to find) was COMPLETE & running & I got it cheap with all the "goodies".

yours, satx

SEE it's happening already, just like storage wars, american pickers ect ect, that DAMN flipping ships show is already bringing out the yahoos thinking their boat junk is gold!!! lol just kidding, kind of.
