Have the opportunity to buy an old 18 hp evinrude fastwin. sn. 15036B-09165.
The seller thinks it's a 1962.
Any guess at what it's worth and how much I would have into a basic tune-up and water pump assuming thats all it needs.Also was this a reliable motor in it's time.
Thanks in advance for any info.
Dave
