Will do Robert . The 179 red motor is heaps too powerful for it, but at least it's easy to buy parts . Yes , I've been told the Wisconson was the normal engine fitted. This thing I've got is home made on 13" Holden wheels. I've checked the commutator on the big gene and it's perfect . Don't know about brushes though, will check the field coils for shorts etc. next.

It has a name plate on top, with a series of holes you poke rods into, to gauge the amperage to set it to - goes up to 3/16" rods.
