Thanks for that. Unusual not having a painted barrel. Typically they are black or a zinc/gal finished. Wonder if it has been replaced?

Yip , not a pick of paint on it , Drive Shaft tube is the same , no paint and in amazing condition for being almost 80 years old .
Eddie . That said now I've cleaned it up it may have a light Galvy coat on it , mostly bare metal .

That sounds likely. They would deteriorate quickly without an original coating. Amazing motors.
