Re: (ET) Lift motor ideas?

["Barry" <Barry fredericktown com>]

Jerry:

I have a lift with a bad motor. I actually do not need the lift but I 
wanted
to repair it before I lose the pieces. It does not have the switch or plate
that the switch mounts on. Someone else might make better use of it than 
me.

If someone does not want it as it is I will keep looking for just a motor.

Thanks for the offer of a lift.
