estimated value of a used 1966 Johnson 6 hp outboard
Posted by Chief Redelk on February 8, 2003 at 23:57:30:
Today I purchased a Used Johnson 6 sea horse. The owners manual states 6hp sea horse models CD-CDL 1966. The motor looks almost new. It has been in storage for years and used very little according to the person that I bought it from. Inside the motor cover everything looks new and even the pull rope looks new. At first it wouldn't start but once it was primed it started and ran a little ruff. After I ran it for a while it began to run much better and I believe the only thing that it really needs is it be used. I was suprised to find that the water pump had not hardned and does not need to be replaced as it pumps very well. Can anyone tell me what a fair price for such a motor would be? Without stating just what I paid for it I wish to find out if I got a deal or if I got ripped off. Thanks,
