Does anyone repop this motor, or does anyone have one?  The best I can tell it is relatively unique, or mine is screwed up, but the whole bottom half of the motor casing rotates with the shaft and blade.  I did some quick looking on Funtronics and couldn't find anything similar, any advice?

I might know somebody with a NOS motor - I think they had one up for auction on eBay a while back. It is a Westinghouse motor and the front half does rotate. Is the shaft removable?

I had to replace the circulating motor in my Westinghouse Master water bath cooler.  I had the same issue.  Basically, I bought a new motor from Funtronics  and then modified the existing mounting bracket to get it to fit.  This was not fun.  I had to drill some holes and use zip ties, etc.

I had a similar issue with the Westinghouse 102, but that was much easier to modify, since there was no shaft to mess with.

I pulled apart the motor last night, and the shaft does come out, but with the bottom part of the casing attached.  I'm going to see what I can do about modifying another motor to fit the shaft, but if someone has a replacement that will work, I'm interested.
