I have an older Montauk with a 1975 70 Evinrude. Been wanting to upgrade and found a 1988 110 Johnson at a local dealer. Just serviced, good compression, includes controls, trim tilt, etc... Overall looks clean and I will see it run tomorrow. Asking price is $1200. Does that seem like a fair price? I am not all that familiar with used outboard values.
I sold a 70 Johnson 1981 for $1,500.00 in year 2000, for what that is worth. I did leave it on the boat so I could test run it for the new owner. Gave the new owner all the gages,shifting gear,wire harness ,every thing he needed to install it on his boat. When you do a change out with a new engine you will more than likely use new stuff, as I did.good luck
I would say its a good price, and you live in the upper Midwest with a short boating season, a place where old outboards live forever. Not so in Florida with the salt water and a 12 month season. I have bought 4 old outboards from your area, and had them shipped to Florida.
