Ended up using a piece of string thru the condenser mounting windows and pulled it back while installing the plate over the advance weight pings.

Fresh paint, new brushes, turned the commutator and undercut the grooves. New polished stainless attachment screws. This is an Owen-Dyneto starter. My car is a very early '38 so my guess is it is a carryover from '37 or it just got replaced somewhere in its life. Still looking for the starter solenoid. The square box one.

I got the points conversion from Dwight Heinmuller. It is the silver set at the top right. Nicely machined. I also fitted Onan (Cummings) 312-0256 condensers. You can get them from RV dealers as they are used in Onan Generators and are very dependable, but pricy. Attach file:   Packard dizzy6.jpg (213.04 KB) Posted on: 2022/4/21 9:59
