Folks,
I got a new toy this past week a cute little VV-210:
Even with one governor weight missing she kept proper speed and ran with a slight steady thrum. 'Got the manual and the most of the hardware from another VV-210. I think this is a hybrid made up out of two 210s. The motorboard, backboard and horn louvers are a different finish than the rest of the cabinet, and the two forward screw holes in the backboard don't line up with the metal support underneath.
I've already done a basic cleaning of the outside of the motor and replaced the governor springs and weights. I started cleaning the cabinet with something called Permatex, it's not as good as GoJo. I've switched back to the GoJo and 0000 steel wool. I plan on trying the Howards on this little girl.
Here's a couple of shots mid-job:
More photos very soon.
Regards,
J.
