Ray, I think that motor would make an excellent generator for a wind machine. About two years ago I was in contact with an English retired Engineer in Bordeaux, France, on this very subject. The multipoles and the permanent magnets are almost exactly how he envisaged the ideal wind type generator- self exiting, slow speed, flat voltage curves after rectification. Now you need a prop, some slip rings to fetch power down the pole and a device to shut her down in high winds, plus your voltage control and storage. There's a wealth of DYI stuff on the web on this subject, so don't re-invent the wheel. Go for it!
