    Thanks all, my next motor to restore is this 1936 Thor single. Only about 12,000 were made before the company went under and was bought by what would become Mercury outboards.

    After seeing what you did to the other one, I can't wait to see how this one turns out. Great work!

    Mike, I gotta ask a big favor from ya. Can you restore this 52 year old body to look like it did when it was 21? One stipulation tho......it has to be a strictly HANDS OFF restoration.

    Default winter project

    I found the mag. The Antique Outboader is published quarterly by the Antique outboard motor club inc. e mail [email protected]. This is an old from 2006. If this does not work for you try Mid West Prop Spinners president Ron Ellis, Lees summit mo. Let me know if you get hooked up with them.You have a great talent and great hobby.FINE JOB

    Thanks for the info Newt, I joined the AOMCI about 6 months ago and I get the quarterly mag along with other info. It's much like this site and tons of info on old outboard motors.
