If any of you guys remember, the other night I posted about a v6 Merc I found laying in the grass at a local marina in NC. I went back today and took some pics of it. When I flipped it over I noticed that the red decals had been put over the stock ones. I could see "Black Max" through one of the red decals when the sun was shining on it. I think it is just a 200hp v6 Merc. Tell me what you think.
I also took some pics of another Merc in his yard. It is a late 60's, just sitting on an old junk boat. I am going to post the details and pics in another post.

Nothing special, mid eighties 200 with home made decals. But keep an eye out, you never know what you'll find out there.

i've seen alot of older mercs and Mariners of that vintage that have those same red stickers on 'em, around here and over time on the internet. If its free i'd take it, but then again thats me:D

I think those decals were offered aftermarket back in the eighties...Lots of glittery Champion bassboats had glittery Merc decals on the motors to match.
