Steel 35

A new Co worker found out I was working on a old junker and asked if I would like a parts motor, I must have raised an eyebrow because he brought it to work yesterday. Kicker while unloading it he told me it came from a early destroyer? Says it had a 500 amp DC Generator and he now runs it with a PTO and it still works well but the motor was stuck. My plans are to strip the stuff in the next week because I need to move it from work, I would like to repair the Stromberg 97, Generator, Helmet Distributor, & starter for spares in the future, and time permitting tear down my first flathead and see what is stuck. How odd or rare are the 6 blade fan and hub, Governor, and adapter for belt drive. My guesses so far are 37, 21 stud and it was rebuilt by the tag in a year ending in 5.
