Default Old outboards

I had a 1967 Evinrude 10hp on my aluminum boat, I believe my grandfather used Thurstons for parts as well. They dont make them like that anymore, that thing would start on the first pull after sitting all winter when it was 20+ years old. I dont know who we sold it to, but I bet it still runs!!
