Trying to find any racing history on my Crescent outboard

I was hoping someone on this site my have seen this outboard? I am in northern NJ and picked it up at an estate sale last year in the back of a dilapidated garage. I'm in the process of restoring it. I'm trying to decide if I want to restore it to as raced condition. Meaning keeping the blue powerhead and silver midsection. The officials red paint marks are still on the lower unit. Or put it back to the orange and black. It does have an upgraded ignition system to eliminate points float.

So if you remember seeing this Outboard in the past racing I would love to know it's history.

Thanks
James

Hello James, PM me, where abouts are you in northern NJ, I am in Waldwick.

A little bit more information to add that I forgot. I removed the exhaust tuner from the bottom of the midsection and it is the long one which from my research was longer course racing. I have been in contact with Dick O'Dea and a few other Crescent owner but no luck on who's outboard this might have been during its time of racing.

Thanks
James
