What kind of fan are you looking for specifically? Brass?

I have a few fans I picked up for future parts that could probably be restored. All prices are plus shipping. The cheapest thing I have is a 12" Hunter pot metal AOU, steel blade steel cage. All the parts are there, it runs on all 3 speeds if I remember correctly. Needs a complete restoration - $45 I have a 12" GE small motor yoke with brass cage and blades. Not sure if it runs or what condition the switch is in. Two of the 4 blades need attention - $70 Also have a 16" BMY brass cage and blades. Runs on all three speeds but the blade hub is bent. Not sure on a price. I can get pictures if interested. Last edited on Mon Apr 25th, 2011 03:55 am by Ron Gibson |

Joseph, I may have a Signal Cool Spot 16" fan that meets your criteria. I just need to bodge it together and make sure it works OK, it'd be an easy fan to restore and all I'd ask is the cost of shipping. The soonest it'd be is next weekend when I could get to it. It would need a repaint, clean and regrease of the oscillator and new wiring. Last edited on Mon Apr 25th, 2011 06:59 am by Duane Burright |

Here is are pictures of the SMY I promised. I would imagine it would be around $30 to get it to you safely giver or take $5 if I have to buy boxes. You can see the two blades that needs attention and the top strut will need replaced. ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited on Tue Apr 26th, 2011 02:13 am by Ron Gibson |

OK, here are some pics of the junker - it does run. Note that it needs to be repainted, the base plate is flaking off. Also the wiring will need redoing. All you'd pay is the shipping for this one. Attached Image (viewed 534 times): Last edited on Sun May 8th, 2011 04:34 am by Duane Burright |

The guard is held together by these u-bolts, it could be brazed back together. It was like this when I got it. Attached Image (viewed 539 times):

Joe, I've got a Tripl-aire that needs restoring, it runs and could use a new paint job and rewiring
