engine cooling fan

[bkahler]

We've just about completed our move from Arkansas to Kentucky and I'm in the process of inventorying all of the parts for our Amphicar in the hopes that I can start working on it later this year. One thing that seems to have come up missing is the engine cooling fan that mounts on the water pump pulley.

What I would like to know is whether the fan is a Triumph part the same as used on Triumph Heralds or Spitfires or is it a custom fan developed for the Amphicar by the manufacturer?

Bottom line is I now have to locate a replacement fan

Dave_the_Wave, I'll probably be contacting you in a few months about getting some outside rear lower quarter panels.

Thanks,

Brad,

I tried many different fans on the Amphicar and nothing works as well as the original Amphicar fan. It is a very aggressive fan. I didn't see anything from Triumph that was the like it so I think Amphicar made it. Chances are someone with a larger parts stock than I have can find one for you. I have a spare but would rather hold onto it for the time being.

Now that I have moved my office to the basement, which is where I keep my stock I have only to walk a few paces to check stock.
I have 3 painted redy to go fans hanging from the rafters.$60 and used parts If I have are 1/2 of new usually
I am going to Evansville and can bring parts to that show If ordered ahead of time.
