Found this old outboard boat motor in a garage of a remodel job. So took a stab at restoring it.
This is how it turned out
I believe it’s a 1949 Evinrude Sportsman

Not sure if it runs or not, might/ might not. I just wanted it for a decoration piece up at the lake on the tiki hut I’m gonna build lakeside someday! lol
