    My new FE Outboard!!!!

    OK... so it's not Fast, but it is Electric. I found one of these today. This thing has got to be 35+ years old. I remember as a kid having one in the closet. I am not sure what happen to it, but I've got one now....

    It's in great condition for it's age. Not perfect but real good. The stickers have been covered with a clear scotch tape. I am willing to guess this was the previous owners solution to them coming off. The motor still works but i will need to make a new metal battery contact for the front, and then re-solder the motor wires. If you notice in the pictures, it also had the original instructions included... Cool Stuff!!!!

    Later,
    Mike

          Depending on what you find regarding the Cox stuff; it can be highly collectible.
