Welp. Don't put it in your recycle bin.
The Chinese don't want it no mo.
So the garbage collectors will fine you for putting it in the recycle.
I made the mistake of putting a couple electric motors in mine, along with a bunch of aluminum.
The recycle guy hopped down from his truck and started taking pictures of the inside of the bin.
I went out to ask what was wrong. He told me it was all garbage now.
I asked him if I yanked it out, would I still get fined.
He replied that no I wouldn't, but they would be watching from now on. :doh:
Best bet is see if a metal scrap yard will take it. Or maybe someone on here
might want it for parts?

 

Try putting it up on C/L and see if any one might need parts for it. Fishfeet is correct.

 

Hmmm. I have a 1954 Evinrude 25 horse Big Twin that lay in the desert sun for decades. Wondering the same thing ...

 

HMMM Bill.
Did there used to be a lake where you found the Evinrude?
Might want to keep digging, cuz there might be an ancient pirate vessel buried there somewhere.
The old inland sea ya know.

 

FF, no, it came with a restorable 1956 Lone Star Clipper that I am trying to give away ...

 

I saw your add on google.
Fine looking boat and motor. And left hand drive. Why don't you restore it?

 

Look up Deer Island Outboard Salvage. They gave me $300 for a blown Evinrude 115. Then sold me a prop for my 90 Honda for $100....

 

I would call around to local boat motor mechanics to see if this interests them. You might find a taker. Otherwise, scrap it.

 

Cragislist freebies.

 

FF, lost interest, can't crawl around like I used to due to the three back surgeries and want my garage back.

 

Sorry bout that Bill.
Bet that boat was a beaut a few years back.
Get well soon. You'll get younger yet. :wink:
