1987 Johnson 4hp

Check out the ugliest outboard on the Eastern Shore of Maryland! Some guy tried to paint it camo green without prepping or removing the decals. I'm in the process of restoring it back to a decent looking little motor but she runs great!

Sad!

Camo green and white latex house paint gotta love 'em..... not!

Cool motor, should look good no matter what you do.

Finished stripping the motor, sanding and painting. Just waiting for the decals to arrive.

You have done that little motor a great service.

Well guys, here is the finished product. I didn't spend the $45 on the model correct decals but I did spend $5 on the ones you see here. I wasn't even sure which direction the seahorse was supposed to go but they are on there now and I just wanted to keep it clean and simple. Something relaxing about working on that outboard in the evenings but I'm glad it's done.

Nice job!
Always wondered why people would do that to an engine when they can simply throw a camo net over it when at their favorite hunting spot.
