Black & Decker 3/8" Drill - project (Fremont (Warm Springs))

Made in the late '70s/early '80s. Worked until I decided to post it. Died: RRRRRRRR-RRR-rrr-r-r...... Maybe an electrical problem? Loved it for its solid, heavy-duty-ness. Variable speed reversing, RPM 0-2500. Has a lock on the trigger, reverse switch on the back, original two prong short electrical cord. Missing key which goes to its weirdly small hole in the chuck but according to the internet this is replaceable. Was going to take it apart to see why it stopped but one of three screws on the case is not coming out so I have some penetrating oil on that. If you love these sorts of solid old tools this might be for you.
