Comments:

I acquired the Moak from a member here on OWWM March of 2010. It is a 1942 Moak "32" special and there were only 20 of these models made. It is a Direct drive 3hp/3ph 575 rpm induction motor. All new tires/ the Stator shaft and hub were all re-machined & balanced, Carter/zyfer guides , ball bearing upper spoke hub,blanched tables that look like mirrors and the original paint as the day I received it. I do plan on a refurb with the detailing later when I can get to it.
