      Been searching all over and cannot find anything. When I got this motor those were the only things missing. I’m sorry. I should have put the model number along with what I thought was the right part numbers.

        OK, well those part numbers you describe are for a 1957 Fleetwin….

          What fleetwin says…and just in case you’re not familiar with what they look like, here’s a picture of a ’58 10 horse just to show you what the ’58 knobs should look like. Same style choke knob, different low and high speed knobs. There might be a slight difference in size between a 10 and a 7.5 but it’s just to show you it’s a different style knob from ’57 and earlier, if you wanted to be original.

            wow..well Guess I should have put the model number along with what I thought the part numbers were. My apologies for that. The model number is 7524. It shows a 1958 7.5 Fleetwin.

              Numbers for the ’58 knobs: Choke 203602 – ebay $20
              Low speed – 277873 replaced by 277879 – ebay $15
              High speed – Marineengine – 277874 – $10 + shipping bringing it close to $20.

              As is often the case on ebay, many sellers list items with the wrong part numbers/years/application but at least you have a visual of what they should like and you can compare. If originality isn’t an issue maybe someone has a set from another year for cheaper.

              One seller on ebay has the complete set for $32 and free shipping. He has it listed as 1956 but he’s wrong, they’re ’58 style. It also says for 5.5 but they’re the same size for the 7.5. He also only has 98% feedback with comments about slow shipping so buyer beware. eBay item number: 335254242466 – https://tinyurl.com/2hdw6nbw

                knobs… Until you find what you need……&  if not  for a full restoration and pride  have you considered  radio  style knobs   the choke one is stricky but doable with a long bolt.

                beats  using pliers 🙂    even kitchen drawer knobs could do     just pick the proper diameter   & “style”
