There are diagrams of fans that work of the front pulleys in the paperwork we have, but we do not have one. A simple two blade thing so may have been removed for being inefficient and an electric one fitted previously. We have ordered a spal fan, so will have a fiddle with it at the weekend.

That is exactly what we need, thank you!

Thank you.

Just getting it registered with the VSCC now so we can start competing.

We are also currently debating the best way to fit an electric fan to the curved radiator!

Good Evening,

After looking around for a while for a vintage car to enjoy with the VSCC, and failing to fit in nearly all Austin 7's, me and Dad bought a 1924 AC Royal last week.

The car is probably known on here, sold to the Isle of Man originally, before being imported to England in 1962, living in the Black family museum and then being recommissioned in 2014.

We have been enjoying tinkering with it so far (much easier to work on than previous cars) and after the checks and fluids, next on the list is an electric fan. Driving wise, she seems lovely, the only issue we are having is restarting when hot, which I feel is due to vapourising in the carb, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

We intend to use her properly, so will get along to any meets and hopefully meet a few of you.

Best wishes,

Tom
