Re: New ADC 11" motor, Citicars, an' Stuff



Gail 

Are there any Motor repair shops local to you?

In Upstate NY here I have found a motor repair shop
 interested in my needs for my EleckTrak E12.

The men were  most willing to help with troubleshooting 
and repair of the main traction motor. It was not
that costly. And they know motors from large AC to 
small universal types.
