a really, really, old johnson

[John S]

I just got an old johnson motor from an elderly lady that is claiming its from the 40's or 50's. I would love to find out what it is and maybe even find a repro-manqual for it. The rope wont pull over, but Im not too sure I would even mess with it (I would guess there arent any parts for it anymore). I would like to see what it is and at least make it some good garage art. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Model - 110 ser #- 276406

I think the model # is 110 cc's (the jug looks about right for 110 cc's anyway)

Thanks-John S

Get us a picture of it. I love old stuff. Lay it on its front and pull the plugs and squirt some Marvel Mistery oil or some diesel or something in the plug holes and let it soak, maybe just a little rust on the walls.
