    Thanks for the video. Thorwald Hansen would be proud to see it still running!
    I looked in the Antique Outboarder archives, and did not see any
    articles on Thor written by Walter R. Chute. Was a good article
    on a twin Thor though.

    quote Callie30R:

    I do believe the K Sea Kings had a one piece crankshaft unlike the five piece crank and a dashpot carb like the older ones but with a tickler to unseat the valve which the older ones did not have My 1935 Thor barley runs and starts and the 1939 Sea King is a delite to start and run by comparison

    Prepare to be boarded!
