Found at an estate sale. Brought it home, no-go on the motor. I opened it up and found a broken wire to one winding. I heat shrinked all the leads and re-terminated them. Now it spins right up. There was a kludged in switch before, I'd like to get an original toggle switch to put back in the plate on the motor.

I'm proceeding cautiously with restoration, may need bearings. My searches inthe archives show that may be a challenge.

I don't see a serial #. There is an ID badge riveted on. It looks too sloppy to be factory, I figure it was an asset tag from a former home.
