A dealer friend of mine gave me this D3C, cleaned it up, replaced the bearings, cleaned the fans, checked the carbon brushes and armature. Checked to see if the brushes were flaring when the motor was running, everything was fine. The pan cleaned up and almost looks new but I did have to replace the latches. Until I can find another D3C latch it has a D4C SE latch on one side. Rainbow no longer offers the brown D3C latches.
And NO Andy, I don't want to sell it!!!! |

Looks GREAT. Beautiful restoration job. I still have one, brand new in the Box. Mine is a D3A from April, 1980.
