This is a Volvo Penta BB70 B16 4 cylinder motor as pictured. Came out of a 1960 freshwater boat with 684 hours on meter (vintage hobbs that is still operational). Fluids came out clean and moisture free. Motor was well protected in boat, there was a rear cover that went from port to stbd and a clamshell cover over the front - all fiberglass. I ran a compression test and even though it hasn't been run in several years all cylinders were in the 117 to 122 pound range - my gauge - 3500ft - should run. Comes as pictured with; starter (works good), Flywheel (no damage seen), alternator (not tested but turning freely), Oil cooler (assumed to be good - no water in oil), and fuel pump (may not be good - found electric fuel pump in boat). Shipping is Freight - $195 - domestically. Questions welcomed - thanks for looking - Greg
