My family just mailed me my N scale set from when I was a kid.  So it's been 25+ years since I'v ran them.  Four days ago, I didn't know the difference between an F7 and a '67' Chevelle:)   I did get most of the engines running after a little memory recalling and alot of research on how to clean them (yes I was suprised to)  Anyway, They are old Lima's with the "pancake" motor (also a new term I picked up).  Since Lima is defunct, parts are extremely hard to come by.  I realize they were not the best engines but I would like to restore them for sentimentle reasons only.  I've check Ebay and picked up a few peices but not much.  If someone knows of place to get parts (there has to be a warehouse somewhere) or even a way to replace the engine.

Thanks
