Thanks for the photo David. You can see what I mean, what is the purpose of the slot/keyway in the pump shaft, on the right in the photo? You would imagine it should line up with the slot in the pulley hub but it is 180 degrees out. I am sure the answer is obvious but I can't see it.
Regards
Bob

Re: What too pay for a GPA?
Hi Nathan, There are several factors involved; condition, location and how many people are looking at the time. If there are 2 or more `money no object' buyers in competion the sky is the limit. However, GPAs are definately a sellers market and will always command a good price. Serious buyers will t...

Re: Looking for correct USA number
Hi Robert, My guess is that the Scottish GPAs would have been in British Service and bought at a disposal sale in the UK. The British had a contract for around 300 GPAs, Ian Grieve can tell you the actual number supplied and possibly the frame numbers. My `good' GPA, frame number 5386 dod 5th Jan 19...

Re: GPA Drive Shaft Tunnel Wanted
Hi Jan,
Jaap reitveld had one at Beltring a few years back, it might be worth asking him if he still has it, other than that I dont think they are a difficult part to make.

Fuel Filler Neck
Good Afternoon Gentlemen, Here are a couple of pictures of the fuel filler neck from my `Good GPA'. Does it look correct to you? It looks a bit bright and shiney to me to be original. I need one for my project GPA so if it is right I will have it copied. That is unless someone has a shed full of the...
