I found this old up beat Model with a solid brass housing on ebay for $40. The motor housing had several large dents in the back and was caved in on one side. The motor was in pretty decent shape, just needed a new set of brushes and some lubrication.
picture of the huge dent on the side of the housing. Note the piece of baling wire that is wrapped around the bolts. Apparently that was some sort of mounting system (and probably why this thing had so many dents in it).
The intake shroud, pretty straight but far from being shiny.
one piece motor and stator design.
and now for the finished product,
