WTB Big 6 generator 917-E core

[Guest GCheaney]

I would like to purchase complete 917-E generator core with crumbling brush end frame. I need one

of these in my hand so I can see the most practical way to restore it to working order again.

Cheers,

Glenn

I had a similar problem with my Big Six generator and found that the easiest solution was to take a 6 volt chevy generator from the fifties and fit the three hole stude end onto it. This allowed the chevy generator to stand up like a silo and fit the mounting holes, but gave me all new insides from the chevy. Except for the two terminals (field and armature) you could hardly tell it wasn't the stude generator.
