Most of those motors just need oiled and tapped with a hammer but I agree if the motor doesn't work good luck finding one .

i just had to ditto the motor comment. I wish someone would start making a motor that would fit, then mine would be worth 6 or 7,000 restored.  |

Man I love the Westinghouse Select-O-Matics. I have a 102 and want the other three. A local guy has the 78 for sale for $550 in poor shape. I sent him a bunch of links trying to politely convince him it isn't worth that...and tossed him an offer of $100-$150, but he hasn't replied...probably made him mad  but I had to try. |

I have a good friend in Milwaukee, hmm...
Like everyone else has said, those vend motors make or break a machine. Really is amazing there hasn't been a replacement made in all these years, they would certainly have some buyers. I've actually rigged mine to vend by turning a knob (will post pictures when completed) to bypass my broken motor but still, such a pain

The motor he did was a totally different brand that everyone else has. Thats why the rest of us havent been able to rebuild ours. I wish I could rebuild mine. |

I'm in the same boat...
I have a WC-60 with a seized motor!
I've been trying to fee things up to no avail...
I may just cut the gear case open and go from there...

If anyone ever finds a replacement I bet they could sell 10 or 20 in no time flat. Id be first in line. I love my 102 but now its just sitting in storage.

Seriously, forget about my college classes and future job, I'm going to create a replacement motor and make millions lol.
Obviously a machine is less desirable without the vend motor but like I said, I'll post pics/directions how to make it functional without one. Until I find a motor somewhere or a parts machine, its the best I can do. I bought it, might as well use it
