Elto Cub:
Limited
Edition. Only 60 made! The Elto Cub sold for
$800 in 2006 and is worth much more than that today.
This amazing
gas powered motor is an exact replica in one-third scale of the famous Elto
Cub, the smallest outboard made at one half horsepower. The top picture is
actually a video of the motor running! The next set of pictures are of
the motors being assembled. After that are pictures of the finished
motor.
The next set of pictures are of the Elto Cub and the wonderful Elto Cub
Display stand made by Denny Cole that's a must to own if you have one
of these motors. It's an exact one-third replica of the real display
stand used at the dealerships to sell these motors. They are also
numbered to match the numbered Elto Cubs and are very colorful. It
really adds to the motor and makes for a great conversation piece in
your display area.

Clarke Troller twin cylinder:
This was the second gas
outboard motor that Ted came out with. It's a one-third scale working
gas model of the famous Clarke Troller TWIN cylinder! This is an
awesome piece. Only about 60 of these were made and originally sold for
about $1,000. They are worth much more now. The unique part of the
real Clarke Troller was that the motor was in the lower unit and not on
top! It was always underwater! Amazingly, the replica's motor is
also in the lower unit!
Notice the size of these motors in the two pictures. It dwarfs the 1958
K&O Johnson and the IMP motors. Thanks to Joe Cain for the
pictures.
