[QUOTE="barnfinds, post: 519423, member: 36392"] With the way people are giving away motors for cheap and how many go for pocket change at the auction these days I can't build stands fast enough. My garage attic, basement, two sheds, and part of an old chicken coop that I converted into a garage outback are all full. I've never counted but a thousand or more likely isn't too far off. Most are late 70's and 80's but there's a few older and a few newer as well. The sweet spot for me is the 1980's motors, mostly 1978 to 1992. OMC. I avoid Mercury, they need too many special tools and parts are not as easy to find here. Single, hell yeah! Got rid of the ex when I got rid of my first boat. Both were more trouble than they were worth. I had a mid 70's glass boat, she was getting older, was costing me a bunch of money, and I wanted something different, so I got rid of her, then I sold the boat and bought myself a new bass boat, then a pontoon, then a cabin boat, a small speed boat, and anything I felt like buying.
