[QUOTE="BYOB Fishing, post: 173543, member: 1756"] There is a local guy that just opened a boat shop in town with a 75hp Johnson. He said he had been using it to steal parts from, but was going to work on it over the winter to get it back up and going, total rebuild. I'm not sure of the year, but it looks to be late 70's. He wanted $2k for it. I was hoping for something oil injected, so I didn't have to mix gas and oil. Not sure if that's something I wanted to go for....But I like the idea of 75hp. He estimated the boat might hit 50mph with that on it. I am so sick of wire wheeling...Funny thing is, that wire wheel has now been through two boat rebuilds and is still intact. I don't know why, but for my two previous boat builds (prior to this tracker rebuild), I painted a bare Alumacraft, and for the second one wire wheeled a painted Lund. I always seem to do everything backwards. :LOL2: [/QUOTE]
