bought another old rudge today

hey yall......I ran across a super deal on a old rudge today that i couldn't pass up. it has a 3 speed hub with coaster brakes and appears to have a "53" hub date on it....it has a dynohub on the front that doesn't light the lights . Im going to test it with a electric meter tomorrow. the paint is a bit shabby, but I have been wanting a mans model for a long time, and it was too nice to pass up.....and I got a killer deal on it off a friend who owns a used bike business......I have a black hercules ladies model that I fixed up for my wife, so now we have a sweet pair of black british bikes.....anyone know anything about dynohubs and where I could pick up either a new repro or used dry cell holder, that I could rig up with newer style batteries?
