Picked up a batch of stock motors, any oddballs?
Hey guys,
I normally keep my eyes open on ebay for lots of inexpensive brushed motors to rebuild into backyard track runners and the like. I picked up the pictured ones today and want to know if any are oddballs that should maybe be saved rather than rebuilt (possibly damaged). The one with the aluminum end I am thinking is a Lemans? The pocket rocket decal looks decent. The precision was I believe one fellow over in San Diego. The Twisters is a 27t yokomo. The other one I cant read the label on. Not sure. Thanks!

Dan,
Kinda what I figured. Hopefully they are decent enough to make some runners out of. The guy threw in a bunch of new springs and brushes as well so for $15 I figured it was good building stock.

Yeah thats why most of my old motors are near the end. About the only ones that survived were my Mr. Series Reedy motors and a few speed gems. My 6 year old has her eye on the pocket rocket, I have a feeling that will end up on her RC10. The 427 looks like it might be a good match for the blackfoot....hmmm the period would be right. Wish I knew a good way to print foil stickers.....
