I spoke to Paul at Goat Hill Classics...........
He takes old original correct castings that have the A/C embossed on side and correct weep holes etc and restamps
them to create 40726 pumps and other numbers. He sells these to Heart Beat City, Paragon and many
other vendors.....Evidently most of the restoration industry is pleased with these (???)
I see this above "recreation" on EBAY for $170.00

I have TWO Original 40726 pumps.......One is stamped CI 40726 (which Goat Hill said is 69' and older)
and the other is stamped 197J 40726 (which looks like a Julian date plus the "J" ????
Both need Cosmetic Restoration. Goat Hill only does a full dissassembly and resto for $137.50
Can somebody comment on my two pump dates and their possible value as cores OR as restored Originals (after I send them to GOAT HILL)
