Wanted: Victor Four Spring Motor suitable for Credenza

Post by Zkeener323 »

Recently acquired a Credenza after many years of hunting only to discover the motor is absolutely shot. We're talking multiple broken springs, broken governor and stripped screws. So instead of attempting to fix it part by part I just want to replace the full Nelson. I'm not looking for anything immaculate but working would be ideal. However, I am no stranger to repairs either so a fixer-upper is also welcomed. I appreciate any help or suggestions!

I live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. I've kept tinkering with it using parts from my other machines and it's just frustrating the heck out of me.

Here is a Craigslist ad for the motor. Perhaps the person will ship? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/atq/5892672901.html

That's Carsten, and I am sure he will ship it. Highly likely it's in perfect running order, as well.

I noticed a four spring motor suitable for a Credenza on craigslist bend (Oregon) and it was only $45. I get to Bend occasionally and could pick it up and get it toUnion sale next June if that helps. Jerry Blais
