Hello all:

I used to work for a company called US electric cars, before they went belly up. I have a 96 VDC bus motor. We used to run these motors at 120v all day long. On the buses we used two of them but they were a 26 passenger bus. We used 1 of these to power our S10 P/U conversions before going to the 460v inverted ac system.

Make me an offer I will sell it. I will get it out and take a picture of it in a few days. This is gonna cost a lot to ship, it is probably 80 to 100 lbs. I haven't moved it in a couple years it is well protected though.

Ok, I went out to the garage and lookek at my motor it is a 72v to 144v series motor double shaft. It weighs a little more than I remember at 140lbs.

This is mine: FB-4001A, 72-144V, dual-shaft, 19 HP, 85 HP peak (9.1")

Advanced DC Inc. is an American manufacturer of an extensive line of series-wound DC motors. By far the most commonly used ones in conversions are the "nine inch" or FB-4001, and the "eight inch" or 203-06-4001.

It has been sitting in the garage for several years so I would like to test it to make sure no damage has happened.

I remember how I got this motor now. This one was from an S10 truck conversion and we overbuilt the battery box. One of the cells exploded and distroyed the whole truck body. I removed the motor and drive train from the truck. When the company ran out of money they owed me for a weeks work so they gave me the motor as payment. LOL

Any ways I would like it to go to good use since this is a monster of a motor. Maybe tomorrow in the daylight I can get some pic's of it.

The neatest DC motors I've handled are the drive motors from old 9 and 11 track computer reel to reel tape drives. I got hold of a couple once back in the 1980s that were scrapped because they had bad timing, who cares? They were the size of 1 lb coffee can with a 3/4 inch shaft, they would run all day on a 1.5v D cell. Some of the guys would set them up and let them spin. They had lots of torque too. At 12 volts you couldn't stop them by hand.
