Fuel Pump Restorer
Looking for recommendations for a good source to restore my original 1968 40659 fuel pump. This one has the crimped base. This is the pump that was installed at the factory so I want it done right and want to get it back in a reasonable time frame. Want to avoid the Goat Hill and Chicago guys. Thanks

Call Volunteer Vettes in Knoxville, TN. They did one for me last year. -

From the Corvette Forum C2 Section a few weeks ago:
Fred Ballard
Canyon Country, California 91387-1801
661-251-2362
I do not know Fred or his work. But you can call him and discuss. There are only a few folks that do this work. Zip and CC and Paragon and Volunteer show rebuilt units in their catalogues, but I think they use Fred or Goat Hill or maybe another. for this work.
For your info.

Arthur Gould did mine and seemed very good. It was a fuel and vacuum pump for a 54.Comment

Fred Ballard did one for me, I would recommend him. He does 2 or 3 batches a year so you need to catch him when is is doing them.Comment

Try A2Z fuel pumps in Fairfield Ill. They were highly recommended by a fellow NCRS member. Excellent results and great turn around. There phone number is on google. No website though.Comment

Re: Fuel Pump Restorer
Fred Ballard does all of our early GT350 (289 Ford) fuel pumps. I was not even aware that he was doing Chevrolet stuff, but it makes sense.
He's a great guy, and we have never had any issues with his rebuilds. He does a nice job cosmetically also.Comment
