Evinrude Folding Motor - Concours Condition

IMG_0677.jpg

The term "concours" indicates the motor is restored but is not historically correct with regard to color, or finish, or content, or some combination of these. Typically they are more elegant than original factory specifications and are judged in a "Concours de Elegance" category, i.e. most elegant on the concourse.
