[FWDLK] 61 starter

[Larry Gardinier <gardinier@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to get the 61 Newport started after it's 20 year slumber. The plug wires are now correct- thanks to all for the help. The latest issue is the starter. A little bit of smoke is rising from the solinoid, it cranks too slow for a new battery and sometimes it just whirrrrrs. This is a 1961 361, can I use a newer starter or even a Dakota starter on this? We're not too concerned about originality if there is a better, lighter, more available alternative.
Thanks for any help,
 Larry Gardinier
