Answer 2

It is indeed a 1957 35HP motor.

Value is zero, so send it to me and I will re-imburse you for shipping!

If that idea won't fly, it really can be worth quite a bit, especially this time of year. You can see what some similar ones go for on E-Bay, and craigslist.com. I would expect in my area anyway, it could sell for as much as $600.00 and up.

Used boats are a dime a dozen. Used outboards (that run) are not as plentiful, and new outboards are big time costly!
