[T3] Fan replacement for a 1967 TYPE 3

[Knight, Ron]

The rubber bushing has gone bad, and I need to either get a new one or rebuild mine.
Have yours been refurbished or is the rubber still good.
Thanks for your help.
Ron

I have several good ones. I believe all Type 3 years are the same. $75 plus
shipping.

What happened to yours? If you had the usual problem of the fan housing
coming loose and damaging the fan, make SURE you fix the fan housing
securing bolt holes in the case before you put it all back together. The best
way to do this is longer M6 bolts and Helicoils for the 2 holes in the case.

BTW, all this can be done with the engine in the car. It's difficult, but easier
than removing the engine.
