I live in Minneapolis and my father who passed away recently had 4 vintage boats in poor condition. My great uncle was William C. Scott and my dad worked for OMC when my uncle was president.
They obviously had great value to my father and I would hate to have them hauled and destroyed if there was someone out there who would want them or could use the parts.
I am wondering if you know of any salvage place that might be interested in the whole lot. There are also multiple stern drives and other components that he has stored. I would prefer they went to someone who wanted to restore them or who could use the parts. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Also, he restored a 1975 65ft Mattie Houseboat and lived on it for the last 25 years. We are also trying to sell that if you know anyone who wants to live on the Mississippi River year round :)
Here is how the boats are listed on the titles:
1964 Johnson Deluxe
1967 Evinrude Sportsman
1970 Johnson Sportsman (SeaSport?) with rebuilt engine
1969 Johnson Stern Drive

I have attached some photos (I would take more thorough photos before I would post them anywhere). The 1970 Sportsman has a rebuilt engine but the other boats do not run and have been exposed to weather for several years and the trailer tires are flat. I am assuming that the parts are all OMC / Johnson but I am not sure how to verify that.

My dad lived with my uncle Bill and aunt Pauline in Whitefish Bay WI when Bill was president of OMC. My dad was in his 20s and his job was to test drive boats on Lake Michigan. His ultimate career was in banking but he never had a better job than that in his mind. My brother and I grew up driving a variety of old OMC boats as my dad never owned anything else. We both live in the city now and don't have the space (or if I'm honest, skills) to take on a boat restoration project.

Lower drive unit assembly has been rebuilt, and has not been used since.
It DOES need a new water pump, and possibly various washers, gaskets, etc., to be reassembled.
It was removed from a 1970 19� Johnson Surfer w/200hp, brackish water, electric shift, high profile, V-8 stern drive unit.
This unit is in good overall condition showing normal signs of age, usage and wear. The shift wire appears to be in good condition showing normal wear.
You may pick it up, or it�ll be shipped on a pallet for a calculated fee.
NOTE: This part may fit other makes, models, and years; however, it is your responsibility to ensure that it will fit your specific application. Please do your research. No warranty implied. No returns. �AS IS�.
Good luck!
