vhgmcbuddyKeymasterInteresting looking back Charlie, I found this bit (Ford 8) The car was powered by a 933 cc, 8 (RAC)hp Ford Sidevalve engine. The little Ford was available in two and four-door versions. In June 1935 a reduced specification two-door model was the only closed-body car ever to sell in Britain for just £100, a price it held until July 1937. If I was about back then with £120 in my back pocket I would have went for the Ford. Well saved from the tip catfish, would have been gone for good.

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterThanks,Charlie,Alan,Angus.
Your right Alan mine looks very similar to yoursApril 7, 2014 at 6:06 pm #7201
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterIf the engine rotation is counter clockwise when viewed from the impeller I would expect the nut to have a conventional right hand thread.
Ray’s suggestion that the two holes are for a puller (any sign of a thread in them?) would imply that it is either keyed to a parallel shaft or may be on a taper.
I suppose that in the absence of a parts list, there is the possibility that the “nut” could be part of the impeller and the whole lot screwed onto the shaft against a shoulder. Seem to recall an Alcon pump with that configuration .April 7, 2014 at 5:51 pm #7197
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterWhile you may well be able to source some parts from within the UK, the majority seem to be on US auction sites.
