390GT Fuel Pump Rebuild (Crimp Type)
« on: July 24, 2013, 03:32:35 PM »
I saw on another thread about a guy named Fred Ballard who can rebuild crimp type fuel pumps.  Does anyone know how to get in touch with Fred or anyone else who can repair these?  I have to get the original one repaired, as my car is shown in concours.
Thanks,

FRED BALLARDS work on these types of original fuel pumps is first class. done many pumps for me and to date none of my rebuilt examples have  failed.

think there are many forum users who would agree with my comments.

This is an update on crimped fuel pump rebuilding. I am actively gathering pumps for my fifteenth run. I have done over 750 of these so far. The $220 price is the same but the return shipping in the lower 48 states is now $18.

Guess I should dig out one or two and send them....... now do I want to send a NOS one or a old used one???  :)
