A few friends are following this auction.
Not because of the items, but more on who was this person?

I commented to the Mrs that I had met a fellow many years ago, and I remember he had a diamond ring on every finger and dressed up in western attire.

Now eccentric is what I would describe this as because who would own over 2000 western shirts/sweaters?

60 pairs of cowboy boots?

10 Gold diamond rings? (well I might be able to see this one)
 
Mornin all.

A foggy one.
Dogs let me rest a few extra minutes it was/is so dark still.

4 plus mice rode with the outboard motor out of the woods into the pole barn. One might have survived. Though well lubricated with spray lube.
Pulled flywheel and cleaned a lot of mess.
Cooling fins were clogged solid. Power-washed them after grubbing them out.
Most of a can of carb cleaner on non carb areas so far.
The points await inspection next.
Tecumseh carburetor. Given the varnish encountered so far ; a China carb around 20 dollars is going to be a likely consideration.

Rebuild the Tecumseh over a China carb.

I haven't recorded the motor number to look up /for kits yet. Did see a metal tag though...
Need to crack the carburetor open to see what's left of it inside and how much corrosion occurred.
Haven't taken the lower shroud off yet.
