Will it run? Abandoned 1950's Hunter CG-16 industrial fan

Glad to see it's a runner Tyler 😁👍

You have a lot of fans, glad to see your channel is still popular😄. Truly amazing, probably an 80 year old fan still working just fine. They don’t build them like they used to.

I've been on a fan odyssey lately.

We had one of those fans, the blade guard wouldn’t fly today. Cool vintage fan collection, I like it.

Right, as I mentioned, I think these were intended to be mounted up out of arm's reach, but even the desk fans had minimal guards and in a few cases, no guards. Sticking your fingers in a rotating fan is just too tempting!

@@TylersNeighborhoodGarage As a 3 1/2 year old, been there, done that! 🤕

The fan looks like it can be revived. As for antique stores and malls, I've been in a few of them. Some of the booths have worthy articles, but looking at others, the theme from "Sanford And Son" starts playing in my head.

The main problem i run into is that they tend to mix new, reproduction items in with legit antiques, so you have to be careful. If a "vintage" wall thermometer is $30 instead of $150, it's a fake.
