Howdy Everyone,
I'm looking for a 1958 Evinrude Fastwin 18hp motor in excellent running and cosmetic condition. Don't want a '57 or '59 or a Johnson. Not looking for an overhaul or restoration project, just a nice motor I can drop on my little mahogany plywood runabout and go.
I just now joined this forum because it looked like a good place to look for a motor.
If anyone has one of these for sale or knows of one I would really appreciate a lead! Thanks all!

I have one electric start 18 that I won't ever sell, but I do have a not so pretty pull start one. It might be a 15. Not sure. You prolly wouldn't want it cz it needs a paint job. The cover needs a new set of decals as someone painted it several decades ago. Does have a zero hours power head tho. Comes with a pressure tank with good hose on there.
Sometimes you can't be real picky and have to take what you can find. Best of luck in your search. I'm sure there are some out there for you as they made gazillions of these.
 
Your location ?

Thanks everyone. Sorry for the delay in responding, I've been negotiating on one all last week. Got the deal finalized on a '58 18hp in great shape; low hours, new coils in 2002 and new impeller in 2012. Starts quick, runs strong, good compression. In the same family since 1969. Came with tank, hose, original owners manual and parts list (they look brand new) and maintenance records. Drove to Milwaukee from southern Ohio last weekend and picked it up. $500.
Now comes set up. I'll be posting some questions for the group in the near future.

Sorry, I only need the one unless you have the same model in better shape.....
Besides, I thought this forum was for outboard enthusiasts?
