Classic 1957 Johnson Seahorse 3 HP Sea Horse Outboard Boat Motor Model JW-13
For auction is a Vintage 1957 seahorse 3 Outboard Boat Motor I have owned 54 years. This is model number JW-13 and serial number 1494007. This engine is a twin cylinder that my family purchased in 1959. Comes with the original owners manual!  (Front cover is missing, and pages are worn and tattered.   It runs briefly when starting fluid is applied to the carb throat, so the ignition works ok.  I cleaned the carburetor and fuel tank.  In reassembling the carb I couldn't keep the float needle from sticking, so the gas is not getting to the fuel bowl.  The motor starts, but doesn't keep running.  If you search for "P5270014 1957 Johnson Seahorse 3 hp outboard" you can see it run.  It does not run long enough to determine if the water pump still works, so that might need to be replaced.  The spark plugs are at least 35 years old, but it still starts, so there is a strong spark.  Both of the coils were replaced in 1980, and the motor was not used after that. Please note however that the there are areas of missing paint, and small dents in the tank.   One transom clamp is stuck in the open position and is missing the round pad. The shaft of the high  speed carb adjustment is damaged, so that the knob does not firmly attach, but the shaft can be turned with a needle nose pliers (probably will need new hi and low needle valves).  There is a steel replacement washer to hold the steering tension.  The motor rotates 360 degrees for reverse.  It was not designed with a gearshift.  Comes with the original two bladed propeller and the three bladed prop I used for more pushing power.  This motor has been stored for years in my garage.
Please review the pictures carefully.  The steering handle was removed at the time the pictures were taken.  The motor is being sold as is with no warranty or guarantee.  Please keep in mind the motor is 56 years old.  SHIPS TO LOWER 48 US STATES ONLY.

Rolls Royce Bespoke & ‘The Daddy’ of Picnic Sets

Wed, 21 Jul 2010

The Rolls Royce Bespoke Picnic Set You can buy a Rolls Royce Phantom for as little as £275,000. Which may seem like a lot of money, but to the Phantom buyer who probably already owns not only a number of other cars but in all likelihood a yacht and a plane as well, it’s a mere bagatelle. What’s more, the Rolls Royce buyer well used to buying and commissioning private yachts and planes is also used to specifying custom options.

Saab on brink of closing after GM rejects rescue plan

Mon, 19 Dec 2011

Saab Automobile filed for bankruptcy on Monday and is on the brink of shutting for good after former owner General Motors rejected a rescue plan. The move sets the scene for the end of Saab's struggle to survive after months of hastily drawn-up deals for a company that hasn't made a vehicle in months. The latest plan involved Chinese automaker Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile, but this was vetoed by GM, still a key Saab supplier, over the weekend "After having received the recent position of GM on the contemplated transaction with Saab Automobile, Youngman informed Saab Automobile that the funding to continue and complete the reorganization of Saab Automobile could not be concluded," Saab's Dutch owner, Swedish Automobile, said in a statement.
