I need help identifying an old outboard

[jgemar]

Hey guys,

I’m new here just joined today. Hoping y’all might be able to help me out.

I found this old outboard in some things my dad had piled up. He let me have it being he had no use for it. It’s pretty dirty and I can’t find any markings in it. Any information you guys might have would be appreciated.

All I can come up with is it looks like a Power Products engine. I got no clue who made it into an outboard.

That’s a Waterwitch lower unit.

Appreciate what you guys are giving me here. My dad thought it might be something my great Uncle either put together or bought it that way. Gonna look at y’all’s suggestions tomorrow.

I really appreciate it.

So that’s why it so bamboozled me. As I looked at that thing, I wondered how come it has such a “Modern” engine on such an Antique lower end. “Modern” in this case meaning like the early 1950’s. Somebody did a pretty good job of marrying the two together.

The top looks like a ’63 Eska that I have, 3 HP. NABMD
