I looking into buying a 1960 40HP Evinrude Lark II to put on my 14ft Vbottom aluminum boat. The motor is electric start with tiller control. It is in running condition and is being offered for $500. I haven't seen it yet so that's about all I know at this point, but am going to look at it tomorrow afternoon.
Can anyone povide some general information about this motor. Are they good, dependable motors? If it is in running concition, is it worth what's being asked? I'm a little concerned about buying a 1960 motor. Are there any know issues with these motors? Are parts available? When looking at this motor, is there anything specific I should be looking for / checking out before purchasing. Is the 40HP too big for a 14ft VBottom?
I would greatly appreciate any information you can provide.
Thanks
