Hello,

My name is Frank and I live up state N.Y. My kids were playing in the woods outback this morning and found an old outboard. I looks to be about 50yrs old and except for a broken prop and missing cover (?) it appears intact. There is no external rust and is completely siezed. (except for a couple of small knobs)

I am trying to find out the following:

- Year (Based on my initial research, I think it's from '58)
- Availability of parts and manuals

The info on the tag is as follows:

Firestone Tire and Rubber Co.
Code: 133-8-1785
Stock Number: 10-A-112
5 H.P. O.B.C. Certified @ 4200
Serial Number: 17852820

Akron 17 Ohio

Any direction would be greatly apprieciated.

Thank you
