Got this really cook old school motor. I rebuilt it, cleaned the brushes and flushed in and out, resoldered them back on and made new input leads. Ran it on my test stand and it feels really stout. 

Any guesses on model? I figured it was a Trinity.... Thanks for any help. Pink color appears to be original.

Man, there's a few that that motor could be - Trinity, Peak Performance, Precision Motor Works. The extra dimples near the slots are not making it easy to find matching pics of!

I have a similar motor somewhere at my dad's home.  It was a trinity. Remember it was a 13x3 puted in my ff01 clio. 
here is a pict found on the ternet.

^ Yep, that's it - I actually have one! What threw me off was the endbell on mine stayed pink and didn't fade to orange.

A cool time capsule from ~2002 arrived - A never used EXPEC radio set pulled from an XB TT-01 model:

🤤 I love cpr units. Same if they are poor esc. But for shelves or soft runs , it's always fun to have a full tamiya setup. Congrats Todd.

These turned up today. I’ve been keeping an eye out for a set of these early F1 rubber tyres for my Ligier build.
So happy days. I think that’s the final piece of another resto “ jigsaw puzzle “. All set for a build at some point in the future.
