Very useful information, Terry. I may go that route... it's always good to have a plan B! I have totally recapped the chassis and the vibrator power supply. I may let my dad take a look at the vibrator. He has a 1956 Plymouth that has a Motorola radio and it uses a vibrator. He's been rather successful at taking vibrators apart and bringing some dead one's back to life (he's done it for other owners of the same model car). I still may post an ad here just to see if anyone has a source that may have a 32 volt vibrator. It can't hurt to have a spare on hand.
