I'm always amazed at just how many individual parts go into making the vehicles we all love. An example being the copper stud in the starter. It's simple in what it does but takes 8 pieces to do it.
Also you can see where the copper band snapped/corroded away on the field coil. They should be easy to make match last part I noticed was the starter lever. The little contact points were rather heavily worn. I'll be checking the other starters I have to see what condition they are in. If all are similar I figure I'll just rotate them a bit to an unworn section.
