I've got a 1942 round dial and my motor generator just failed. Broken winding. Anyone have a good one? I'm in Texas just outside of Austin.
I have one just like that one that is available here in the Lafayette,LA area.
Well f**k's sake? it appears to have earned the right, given the evidence shows serious neglect! Filth in important places, looks to have been run with brush damage/excessive wear, maybe wrong brush material?, and off its proper timing.
I suspect it can be cleaned-up by even an "average" motor shop without need of a full rewind.
New leads, check windings from the outside, clean-up the commutator, see to the brush holders and their tampers, fit new brushes, TIME it. Lot of wear on the commutator, but still plenty more years left in it if but kept in good order.
They are legendary hard to destroy. Even when TRYING to do - destructive testing, guilty as charged.
