If anybody would have multiples of those motors,it would be him.(if it's who I'm thinking of)That's what he does.I don't know how to tell how many he has sold.As far as price,while it might seem like a lot to me,I don't see how you are going to restore and plate one for that kind of money either.I don't know what kind of success people have had replating them,the plater I used to know wouldn't touch them.It is hard to get that old pot metal to hold a vacuum after age and chemicals start warping the body.
