Kevin,
Two things. The wheels are missing the traction tires. I bet the unit wouldn’t run well just with those missing.
If you’re intent on having a dummy, I don’t know how well the wheels with freely roll. In this picture remove the two philips screws and lift off that brush cover. Then lift out the motor armature. You can then look down at the gear that might be stripped. If you leave these parts out, you’ve got a dummy. I have an MPC dummy chassis if you’d want to trade.

I have been using this unit as a donor so the traction tires are now on my other GP-20. I may take you up on the swap but will first try as you suggest and take the motor apart to try to dummify it.

Thanks for your help!
