I won this gem at auction and am happy to have it!
Unfortunately, the auction pictures didn't show zinc rot on the wheels.
There's no light in front, almost like the whole socket is missing.
The mechanism turns by hand with some force.
I would like this to be a runner. I have no problem with a resto-mod style overhaul. I first want to get it going in general. Can someone remind me where to find instructions for servicing this beauty? Also, did this have even a 2-position reverse unit? I don't see a typical tab. Is there room for a dallee style reverse unit in the shell? Is there anything that should be replaced as a matter of good practice besides the wheels?
I guess I am looking for thoughts and suggestions to turn this shelf queen into a king of the rails.
