I AGREE!!! CORTLAND THOMPSON OWNERS UNITE!!!!! I plan on using Peter McDowell's paint, the guy in Canada. His research, expertise, color matching, etc. etc. is so thorough that in my opinion, there is just nothing else out there to even consider. Thanks for the compliments guys! I will say it again....

Hi Mike, Any chance you know the model number of the Airguide Tach? Some of them will have a small round sticker on the backside with a number on it. Even if not that type of sticker, Are there ANY stickers or markings on the back of the gauge ? Also, what motor are you hooking into with the tach? I...

I thought I'd post some more pix of some of the prep work I've done getting ready for assembling these twin 59 larks. (Someday) New Old Stock Hood Emblems (pictures just dont do them justice!) http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh36/12qwk4u442/boat/14809eaf.jpg NOS Lower Unit prep before blasting ht...

Bob, Checked out your photos! Look great! Yours are 1958 35hp Larks, everything that has been said about the 1959's are the same for the 1958's. Great motors! But the 1959's are the Gloden Jubilee model for Evinrudes 50th anniversery. Not really any motor difference at all, just different hoods embl...

KEEP THEM !!!!! USE THEM !!!! They make your boat / engine combo more desirable and unique!!! I also have twin 1959 Golden Jubilee 35 Hp Larks, sequential serial numbered and the original motors for my 1960 Thompson.....Search my user name here on the board - Im restoring the motors now (boat too) -...

I've always been partial to calling those certain peeps watercraft "plastic-snot"
But I guess thats not too nice....

Look at these babys!! Perfect for a restoration! Anyone need ?? (BTW- I have a compressed Airguide file of instructions and etc. for anyone here on the Thompson site - just email me) Model 664 Surface Mount http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh36/12qwk4u442/boat/new6641.jpg Model 665 Surface Mount h...

Boy Andrew, I would have to suggest to go with the guy in Canada... Just my two cents.
Dad always said "If your going to do it, do it right"

sheeesh!!! Its been another whole year! I'm pathetic ~ by the time this project is done I wont be alowed to run a two-cycle! I guess I didnt do much after Feb of 08, and am just now starting again for this year - such is how its been for 8-10 years, I work on the motors thru the winter, on and off. ...

First, I have compiled a far from complete collection of Airguide instruction sheets and mounting info into a compressed file, anyone from the Thompson site is welcome to this.... just email me. Second, I have several models of sea speed tachs on ebay now - please go look, i wont give details here, ...

Shes a dam* good looking girl!

(I still want twins back there) hahaha

Thanks. I ordered one on the seventh. Once it got here on Monday I could hardly contain myself to get it in the CD drive. No go. Ok, fine... tried the second CD drive I have, still no go. Ok still calm, tried several other CD's to confirm my 'puter didnt have a problem, they worked fine. Took the Th...

AJ, From some time ago I believe I remember that you were putting all of the Thompson "Model Line Brochures" on a CD, or at least all of the ones that you had up to that point. Am I remembering correctly? Did you finish this? Did you include any from Thompson of Cortland? I've looked aroun...

She's Beautiful !
That'll be a sweet boat once done.
Looks like it had a single outboard, but that would be a nice place to hang TWIN Vintage V-4's !!! Something I always thought would be cool!

WOW!!!!
Nice!
Looking dam* good!!
