May sell OMC I/O

[oceanpotion]

For any of you who have seen my other posts you know what I got. It is a 1970 OMC 800 with a 198-? GM 350 engine. I have a couple questions: What can I expect to sell the I/O for? Would it be better to sell them seperately?

Also, Im still having troubles getting this thing running. I know this thing is an old engine so what do you think the difference would be in selling price running vs not?

I wanna patch up the hole and get an outboard.

Realistically if the outdrive is good probably about 800$. thats what i sold a spare one of mine for.
the motor probably 500 no accessories-900$ with accessories in good running condition

Before you go selling your outdrive double check your info about having an 800. The 800 did not start showing up until the late 70's.
