I have a 1971 newell with a Gas motor I have been upgrading I learned a few tricks. If you still have a starter motor as a air compressor i would watch out. mine got hot and started on fire. Made me think about a diffrent motor to use i came up with a pallet jack motor i also modify it with a heat temperature switch to shut down motor at a set temperature. I dont have a problem with it getting hot at all but its nice to know its there in case of blowing a air bag or getting a fast leak. THIS IS A MUST UPGRADE. Also changed my rims to a 21 in heavy truck rim that are not the splite rims. I love the forums and i will also be uploading pics. If you have a problem finding the motor or rims be free to contact me email is in profile
