You didn’t see this coming.<\/p>\n

Amongst all the clearing up and out came this form the kits box. It’s been there for a while and it was intended to use the the body for a Ted Polet type conversion to 009. This didn’t happen and I didn’t even try running it. It was absolutely filthy and appeared to be electrically dead.  The body came off and I dumped it in a some warm soapy water and attacked it with a toothbrush (she’ll never find out). This was quite successful and some power was applied to the motor. It runs! <\/p>\n

Disassembly located the broken wire to the pick ups. I took the whole thing apart, cleaned the armature and brushes, removed the suppressor, and replaced the broken wire and the pick ups. The wheels were cleaned with a fibre brush and the whole lot put back together and lubed. It’s probably 65 years old and it now purrs along. It also looks a lot better than some of the similar Ebay offerings and is now up for grabs.<\/p>\n
