Mini Starter - For those interested

I was browsing around looking for electrical stuff and found this:

If or when my 56 Plymouth starter on my truck dies this would be a great replacement.   Lots lighter and smaller.  Should be much easier for my old arms to put in place.  More cranking power too and that neat (or not so neat, depending on your taste) reduction gear cranking sound.

 

The original 56 pickup 12v is the foot stomp version so it is getting the Plymouth with a solenoid/bendix drive arrangement.

Good info! I was panicking about losing my source for alt,gen,starter repair, as he’s retiring. I really like the idea of getting rid of the foot stomp starter as well. Don’t see that listed in Snap’s offerings yet for my ‘40 201
