Any suggestions on if this Jap Generator is war-time?

Yes
 
These are WWII vintage with a large number of uses. This particular type has come up before in thread http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/sh...=Jap+Generator at that time there was an extremely good link to a site concerning the history and restoration of these units, unfortunately the link is not working at the moment. I think I saved the whole site so may be I can find another link to it.

There was one of these Generators with my HUP when I got 30 years ago.

Cheers Phil

Did you ever look at your plates to see if it was an Air Ministry (AM) or WD Generator.

Hi Neil

The data plate which should have the information is warn blank there is a stamp of some type but I've been unable to get a good picture of it. I'll have to haul the generator out of the loft and put it on the bench to see if I can get a useable picture.
