The engine cooling fan on the motor that came with my car has several broken fins/blades. Looking for a replacement i can only seem to find used part? Does no one produce oem style or aftermarket replacements for this? Is used my only option?

Sorry if this has been covered. Did not find anything in the search.

Whatever fan you source, would be wise to check #1TDC with a dial indicator to verify the notches on the fan/shroud are correct.My $.02

Looks like I'm making a deal for a very nicely restored family from cholland that has no indicator marks on it so will need to do that either way. That will require some more research. By the time this cars on the road I'm sure i will have annoyed at least half the forum with my constant questions
