C2: AC Fuel Pump 40083 on ebay?

[Alan Drake]

Just looked at pump on ebay # 290042859549 and it seems to be real. However the bottom cover, "4 screw Pulsator Bottom Cover", is different from my original.
Where the subject cover is round mine is flat with two round bumps on it.

So the question is, did AC make two different styles or is one wrong???
I have been able to verify my car back to Spring of 66 and since that date the fuel pump was not changed. Also have a second 40083 and it has the same bottom cover.

AC Fuel Pump 40083 on ebay?

Alan,

I've seen 40083 fuel pumps with both covers, but I've not seen one with the AC embossing on top and the part number on the flange and having the bulbous round cover like the one in the auction, so maybe it's original, but with the bottom cover changed out.

It's interesting that Goat Hill is starting to run e-bay auctions. Maybe this is one way that buyers will get there parts in a reasonable about of time.
