    My 1500XS

    I made a long trip Wednesday and picked up this beautiful survivor 1977 150XS. It's in awesome shape. Wrap still has screens intact.

    Got a 1978 150XS new and had it on a 15' Allison. Ran great for years....Cool survivor engine you have. Very nice power for a small go fast.

    Ain't it great to have papa TRUMP back at the helm?

    A guy owned a marina in N Carolina and sold the business several years ago and he had on display on an old Mercury stand. He said they started it a few years ago. They did put a new CDI harness on it. I have not tried to start it yet but it has 140 PSI on all 6 cylinders. I've owned a few of these over the years but I'm getting old and I probably won't find another one so I'm keeping this one. I have a 78 Vector I'm going to put it on.
