Wanted: Strombecker motor parts

[Midget87]

Hey everyone,

I am in search of the following.

1) Brush springs for the red endbell Igarishi Strombecker Hemi. I have a motor but no brush springs. 
2) End bells for for the Blue Igarishi EB motor. and perhaps brushes and springs.

I have two if these blue EB motors and the EBs are split in half horozontally. Perhaps a two peice EB is the speed secret but I am not sure it would pass tech! I have considered trying to put them back together with epoxy but would rather find some good EBs if I can. 

Thanks and LMK   Mark

Mark M,

Sounds like I have a similar blue end bell motor. I am also looking for some brushes for them. Found that the black and green end bell motors have different parts, so not a source.

David A, said that EJ's might still have some parts in stock, but I have delt with them.

Hey Mark, I called Ed and spoke to him last week. No more brushes. I am going to try to check out the train world and see what I can come up with. Hemi brushes are different so it might be easier to land some for the blue end bell motor. It looks like I just need to buy more motors to have the parts to build a runner.

Thanks for the help. Mark

I also need to check my vintage HO cars.  I have extra brushes for those and thinking the Old Tyco might be the correct size, but have not got to the correct boxes yet.  Maybe time to move all the HO stuff down under the 1/32 slot car track so it is easier to find.
