Have a 1934 1/2 ton pickup. One of the fanblades just broke nearly completely through. Have not been able to locate a fan for 207 engine yet and am wondering if a 216 fan will work. Any info appreciated. wjb

What are the dimension of your broken fan? Bolt hole spacing, diameter and width of blades, etc. With more info we might be able to help.

ndnchf: Will get that info. I have now been told that only fans from 34-36 will work, both truck and auto, although the auto fan is a little smaller.

Thanks. wjb

I wonder if you can weld it back up, or is that too dangerous?

I thought about that. Don't know how that would work out. I got a 34 car fan that I'm going to use, so, for now at least, won't have to find out. wjb

willie,
Tony (truckedup) posted a note some time back about a plastic fan that he bought from one of the suppliers, maybe American Racing or JC Whitney. He trimmed the fan with a pair of snips. This may be something to look in to. Maybe you could get one and drill your own mounting holes.

You should alway closely inspect that OLD stock fan. I've seen several that had fine cracks and quite a few over the years that shot a blade completly through the hood. I always try to stand out of the line of fire around a running engines fan blade.
