Fan Blades - beware!

Broken fan blade

Whilst tuning my car's engine recently I heard a 'clatter' and found that one of the fan blades had sheared and dropped to the floor near my feet. Metal fatigue appears to have been the problem. It is only as I have reflected on this that I appreciated that I had a lucky escape. A 4'' piece of fan, travelling at several feet per minute, has a lot of stored energy, and could readily have embedded itself in me! In future I shall be a more careful about keeping away from the plane of the fan.

I am now looking for a new fan blade and wonder if anyone can help. My fan was chromed. This was not standard treatment and I will be very happy to find a painted version. My fan is formed from two of these items - which are 14.5'' long - crossed, to give a four-bladed fan. My car is a Series III 25HP, but I think this fan may well have been used on other late 1930s models.

14 September 2011

Enquiry:
Hi all, This is a bit of a long shot but i'm trying to trace the owner of my late fathers Wolesley Hornet, Just out of curiosity really as this was his pride and joy for many years and would love to know if it's still around. As far as i know it was an Abbey bodied car built in about 1931. I'm not sure when he bought the car but he had it for many years. I think it was in bits and he basically restored it. It was originally British racing green but the following owner had it repainted maroon and the reg number was UF7902. We have a few pictures of it and i can still remember the sound of the small 6 cylinder engine! Anyway if anyone knows if this car is still in existance then i'd love to hear from you. Many thanks

Looking for fun on www.freecarcheck.org.
I find that my late father's 1960 Wolseley 6/99 Reg XER41 automatic is still on the road. He owned it during the 60s and was, I believe the second owner. I would love to hear from the present owner.
