Hi all,
New member here. I just purchased a 1962 Elgin 15 footer. Not the most desirable boat ever created but this one is a bit of a special story. Family owned since 1962, I am truly only the second owner of this boat. The Boat, Trailer and Engine are 100% original. It even comes with the original Elgin key! It has been shrink wrapped for the last 10-12 years and the outboard has been kept in dry storage. I picked it up for $450.

Pics attached and more details to come as I restore this thing!

My first restoration project was similar except that it was a 14-foot 1961 Sea King boat/motor/trailer. = I learned a great deal while doing that project.
