Three more shots just for fun.

The motor has built in thermal protection, however it came with an old box and switch plate that reads, "General Electric, Motor Control" with instructions for a thermal switch. Given the motor was already protected I simply used a HD motor load switch. Kept some of the original GM wire to run from the switch box to the motor.
