There are 2 near me: Fairwinds (not what it was once) and American Outboard (Cordova, MD)

I know there is at least one near Seattle, Bob Abendroth scavenges all the racing stuff from it by a deal with the owner, so us "commoners" don't have a chance:mad:

I watch all the local junkyards and scrapyards for anything that they have that is Mercury or interesting. I was talking to a guy who bought a Looper on eBay. He said that someone had died, the estate sold the house and all the junk in the back got scraped. They kept the Looper. Just think of all the good stuff that went "Bye-Bye." :(
