Very nice find at a flea market
You´ve just bagged yourself a
Wilesco D52 Marine Engine, well done!
What is it mounted on there, looks like an old suitcase...wonder if someone escaped Alcatraz using this "boat"

Thanks for the info. I’d never heard of a d52. I figured it was a few Wilesco pieces cobbled together. Paid $150 Cdn for it. It’s mounted on a little metal stand (that does, admittedly, look like a suitcase in the photo).
