Guys, I just got back. barely. Engine overheated cause I need a new radiator and had to pull over and dump in a gallon of water and half gallon of antifreeze that I had, just for such an occasion.
Here it is about an hour ago about 17 miles out of Salem cooling down.
Weather was hot! But car ran flawlessly (other than the radiator)for the 240 miles I put on her today.
Okay, this is a correct 1970 early Mura "C" can motor. The endbell is a cut down "B" can piece that someone drilled vent holes into. (That is legal because it predates 1970.) The can, if one notices, does not have the axle clearance cut into the sides and NO bussbars. This is want I want to see because it portrays the very best of what was available in 1970.
Jens, if you were to combine the yellow endbell with the 2-hole can then you might have something worth using. Of course it will need careful assembly, magnet zapping and the right arm to make it scream. The buss bars can be cut off simply by reversing the left hand base plate and cutting the bar down till it's nothing more than a tab sticking out vertically instead of at the top and bottom horizontally. Since these motors are to be mounted in-line, there is NO reason for buss bars anyway. I can suggest a wonderful motor builder who can make that motor sing with a nice re-wound arm if you have the time.
All you have to do is send him both of the first two motors! Or just send the last (4th pic) because that one could very well work!
