I'd either give the motor to a professional starter shop, or at the least, put the armature in a lathe, cut it down lightly, undercut the mica, test for shorted segments, and probably put in new brushes. For the gear box I very strongly recommend Sta-Lube SL 3303, a product of CRC stocked at many NAPA dealers. If's a graphited molybdenum grease with teflon and very similar to the original special lubricant which Packard never identified.
