Picked these up this weekend.

Does she run or is it a project??

 

[DougG]

She’s a project but appears to be in decent condition (4 years older than me and in a hell of a lot better shape)
Washed the years of saw dust off today. Tomorrow pull the plugs and see if I have spark. Fuel hoses need to be replaced.

Yes. Very nice find. I hope you do it justice and put it back into service.

What size is it? Kinda been looking for a 50s or 60s OMC 25-35 to restore, but only finding little guys.

I think it’s around 16hp

That's a cool old boat! 16 HP should push it along nicely. I had a 14 on a similar boat and she planed pretty well, although it took all she had to get up there.
