Keystone movie projector, model K-105?

MY projector has quit, fear motor gone. Can you repair???
Early 1950 vintage regular 8mm, all else works fine. MOtor growls when turned on, no run.

Repair is probably not economical. Unless you have a sentimental attachment to it, it's best to junk it and visit some garage sales or eBay and buy a working replacement projector. Movie projectors, both 8mm and 16mm, with rare exceptions, sell for essentially nothing as there is no demand for them.
