And the picture of the double pulley for AC - is this an exact reproduction of the original part, my curiosity is whether this width belt is available for Sanyo pulleys or ...?
Good questions, both. I bought the repro pulley and a casting of the compressor mount some 25 or so years ago. As far as I know, they are both exact. There was (is) a Sanden compressor with a 5/8 belt groove which would be very close. I do not remember for sure who made the parts although Jim Hollingsworth comes to mind as either directing me to the person or possibly doing them. I remember he sent a copy of a club chapter newsletter with an article on the prewar AC which is what got the purchase started.
