The end of the old paint

Another ebay find, 1 and a 1/2 E60 evinrudes.. a nice chap in Airdre sold me these.. A fair bit of work needed.. main unit at the front has a holed piston, other powerhead/casing I think is quite siezed.. all needs to be stripped, cleaned, measured, painted, gaskets and a lot more.. will be a background job for the next few weeks..



A large cork sheet, courtesy of ebay and £10... Will remake gaskets for powerhead from this, just to see if the engine will run ok to begin with.. Useful stuff to have around, glad I got plenty,,,,






Finally, after a few hours pain, the black has gone, and good ridance....

The orange is the old coat and the yellow is the Gelcoat... I think my earlier worries were false..
