no such thing as a 1911 Elto.

Best,
PM T2

He's livin' in his own private Idaho..... I hope to go out quietly in my sleep, like my grand-dad did..... and not screaming, like the passengers in his car...

The origin of the name ELTO in 1921 and the story that goes along with it is an interesting one; a great segment of Outboard history in the US. Read a little about it here if you want:

Ranger47, your motor appears to be an Evinrude, approximately 1914 to 1917 or so. The tiller handle is a little funky, but the motor appears to be complete. If it turns over and the magneto is good, you’ve got a great restoration project.
