    Hi all, I’m hoping some of you are willing to educate me on what some old outboards may be worth. I’ve attached a couple photos for reference. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    A lot depends on where they are located and their mechanical condition. Are they stuck? or free?. Most the you have are pretty common around these parts, S-E Michigan. The Jet is unusual and should attract some attention. The Scott Atwater looks to be in nice shape with it’s original stand.

    My opinion, value range from $20 parts motors to maybe $100 for the Jet… the rest somewhere in between.

    PS, where are they located?

    I never pay more than $100 cdn  (80U$)  for motor that will need 75-100$ in basic refurbish parts ..if available  like coils

    points condensers carb kits etc.. gear oil …

     

    but… one may be a long saught model for somebody will to pay more … who knows.

    I’m near Traverse City. I pulled a few randomly which did spin, but I haven’t gone through and checked each one. I sold the group with the Scott Atwater for $225, which seemed okay. Someone told me they thought the Outboard Jet may be worth more than the rest, so trying to suss that out in particular.

    bring them to the “Super Meet” at Constantine MI, July 15, 16.  Big swap and sell, will be some interest in the Jet

    Yeah, in my book, the jet is worth as much as all the others combined, not that it’s worth a whole ton. $150, absolute tops, for me. Just my opinion.

    Not to get off topic, but looking at the jet (one of which I have never had) it seems like the power head is pointing the right way but the jet end is facing backwards. I don’t get it.

    Long live American manufacturing!
