Wanted: E3L Dyno Body w or w/out field coil

[Peter Gee]

Hi folks,

Am looking for anyone with Paypal who has a useable E3L body, ideal part number would be the correct A7SS/A10   Lucas #20009 E3L1-0-0 I believe, for delivery by post to my UK shipping agent. If it has field coils, fine. Have or can get the rest of the bits and have a  NOS armature. The part will be replated so I am not worried about external looks though ends must be true, peg dowels in place if possible. I have one but someone bashed the end faces with a hammer at some time, maybe using it as a tool!

Thanks

Number should be 20010.
20009 is for Triumph & AMC twins commonly.

Hi Peter

I might have one here. It needs a rebuild.
 I'm mulling over the rebuild vs switch to Alton and 12 volts.
Shipping might be the issue( Canada)

The yoke must be the same though.

I have seen a Dyno with BSA type endcap ( the "German helmet") on  google images with the exact 2009-E1-0-0 on it. It's the body, i.e. the steel sylinder I am looking for, I don't need any of the rest unless its a mangy old thing with filed coils and other bits. It's for my own  rebuild.

Here is a very similar one.. it does not have to be 100% correct for a BSA http://www.davelindsley.co.uk/assets/images/Dynamo1_000.jpg

Here is one such. I need it from UK as I have a transhipment of spares coming to Africa soon.

If anyone has body or body + filed coil or other useless dyno of the right type around, I will happily buy if the price is right

Have you spoken to Andrew at Priory Magnetos?

[trevinoz]

TT, the body is the same but Peter wants the correct one.

[Peter Gee]

The correct one would be perfect but there is no material difference between some, it's just that Lucas had diff partnos for different makes.

As long as it's a two screw dyno body I dont mind if it's risted or tarnished...

[trevinoz]

As a matter of interest, the body you want for 1959 is 20036 (or 20035, I don't have the book in front of me.)
This type of generator is the one with the metal end cap and internal connections.
The bodies are all interchangeable.

Hi Trevinoz - I have the full Lucas 1936-1957 bike parts catalogue - '57's were body 20010 but I really don't think it matters, those were just bike codes. the E3LM  body will fit any of the armatures and I have the right one.

Now if I can just get a decent scrap E3LM body!

[trevinoz]

Peter I have as many as anyone would want but the postage to Africa would be pretty stiff.

[Peter Gee]

Thanks Trevinoz, either a shame or a blessing your gorgeous country is so far away!

Gota whole gennie on ebay.com complete and good nick last nite from ebay usa..$US52...........not bad. Easier to get to Africa from there than NZ,a place I would love to visit. I hear a bike trip through the South Island is remarkable.
