'60 Water Pump
What does everyone do for an early water pump?
My 60 has the original motor mount bracket. The pump on the car has very few miles on it, but I always like to have a spare when on the road. I have two early rebuildable pumps. I’ve searched the archives, and haven’t found any threads referring to a rebuild service. None of the #’s are correct for a ’60, so originality is not an issue.
I thought there might be someone out there who rebuilds/modifies to better than original. Like improved bearings, seals.
Thanks,
Steve Cauthen
