Gordon is now running and Talking.. Big Grin

He has some issues:
- speaker was DOA. Actually when I was desolidering the wires the whole speaker board came off. Luckily I had a spare from a TnA James.
- drive cog gear was cracked. I replaced the wheels with a different set that had the same size gear. Well apparently the gear is at a different position for these. It fit together but the ativation mechanism would get stuck. Upon looking further it would seem that it was in a bind. I super glued the original and got it out back in.
-new tires as the old ones were cracked and broken.
- vinegar treatment and the light distilled water to clean off a tiny bit of corrosion on one terminal.
- cleaned up the exterior and interior with a Clorox wipe.

He seems to run fine now. Up next is Henry. I have him completely disassembled, as all 6 of the terminals were corroded. I was able to clean a few up with white vinegar and will replace the others with a few spares. Stay tuned...
