I've got 2 of the 7.5 motors they show there in the middle of the page. Mine are a bit older, one is a '59 & the other a '60. Scott-Atwater made them and badged them as Elgin for Sears and then were bought by McCullough corp. Good little motors, both of mine run and they really are easy to tote around.

I used to keep a Sears catalog in the outhouse.
