Topic: 64 1/2 Generator sheild and water pump pully

[KT59]

Hi everyone, Im looking for a heat sheild and water pump pully to suit a 260 generator equiped car, July 1964. Im in Australia but happy to freight. 
Also want book or articles regarding underbody paint markings...

Are you looking for the short, no stamping water-pump pulley, steel, not cast iron?

Hi its the sloted pulley I think I need, its cast I believe.

There were 260 engines with stamped steel pulley's.  I couldn't say for sure if they transitioned to cast iron later in the production year.  Something you may want to look into.  The late April '64 pace car (260 ci) I just finished had steel pulley's, not cast.

Thanks Caspian65
Mine is a July car, restored to concours and recently won Gold, however a judge questioned me on the pulley, mine currently has stamped pully and I have owned car 18years.
Thanks for feedback.

I think you should leave the stamped water pump pulley you have unless someone can prove it's wrong.
