In theory, would a MOOLY-C motor work on a IIIf or IIIg?

For that matter, has anyone used a MOOLY or MOOLY-C to take pictures recently?

Courious minds have to know!

I'm feeling a bit MOOLY today, perhaps it was all that APDOO I drank last night? Maybe it's time for some NOOKY! ;-)

This deserves a separate thread, but out of curiosity, is there a list somewhere on the web decoding Leitz's alphabet soup of parts designations?

I'd start with a SBOOI, Ray :-)

In theory they should be interchangeable from IIIc to IIIf or IIIg as long as the linkage fits... more information on the cameraquest page at: http://www.cameraquest.com/mooly.htm

Of course, we can't forget the popular MOOLY song:Oh I Got the MOOLY Blues.

MOOLY MOOLY, oh Wooly

MOOLY MOOLY, oh Wooly

Luv you in the Morning,

Luv you in the Night.

Gotta Get my MOOLY MOOLY

or I ain't Gonna Be Happy Tonight.

Luv that MOOLY MOOLY,

Would do somethin' Else

But all I can think of is

MOOLY MOOLY,

MOOLY MOOLY.

Oh I Got the MOOLY Blues

Take it from me,

A day without MOOLY MOOLY

just ain't worth livin

Oh I Got the MOOLY Blues

Ok, so it wasn't a hit song, but with a name like MOOLY,

maybe it should've been.
