Be a nice, quick and cheap way to overcome the problem if it did fit. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hello Mike,

Please bare in mind that the following suggestion is borne out of total ignorance ... Would it be possible to gut a new Ford 9N generator as Mike suggested, and fit it into a stripped out old GP case? It would void any warranty on the new generator though.

Kind regards
Lionel
