[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 364513, member: 7544"] IMO The value can be affected by a lot of things. Location and time of year being two big ones. Other things to consider on a motor that has been in storage for a long time, wiring could have been eaten by mice, and all rubber parts are prone to dry rot and possibly needing replacement, fuel pump and carb may both need to be rebuilt. Even though that motor has low hours on it, if it was run in salt water, it could be is need of even more parts replacement. Bottom line, you can't judge a motor by looks alone. All that aside, if that motor was in good running condition, your estimate would be about right for my area. [/QUOTE]
