1964 Johnson 9.5

This motor was in the shed when we bought our cabin on South Turtle.  It ran like a dream, but was not a good looker.  It originally had a pull start handle made out of a stick that I since replaced with a NOS Johnson pull handle I bought on ebay.  She still sports an Evinrude (blue) lower unit (from a 67 or newer), caused likely from someone not draining and refilling her lower unit over winter.  She just developed a shift problem, likely a bad prop, a clutch dog or prop bushing failure.  I may be tearing down the lower unit in the spring, and replacing it with a johnson lower unit from a parts 1965 Johnson 9.5 I just picked up on craigslist.
