I pulled the original date coded blower motor out of my truck and I would like to have it refurbished, so that I can put it back in next time I need to change it. Anyone recommend a company that can make it like new again?

 

I have my doubts you will find anyone who can refurbish it for less than a new motor. If you are looking to rebuild a truck 100% period correct, look in Hemmings motor news. There are several places advertised that rebuild electric motors. I'm sure one of them could help. I just think you will pay hundreds of dollars for a $40 part.

 

I actually paid $23 for a new blower motor on sale...........

You will spend more on labor (even if it is yours) to replace it than cash. If it's already apart...

 

I guess it will just go on the wall in the shop.

 

I had a local auto electric shop refurbish the starter and generator on my 64.5 Mustang a few years back. Wanted to keep all possible original parts. Probably was expensive...but oh well. Seems they could do a simple electric motor if you really want it. Date coded is cool!

 

 

I have a April 1979 date coded blower motor from Baby Blue. I think it still works, but since I was doing a heater core. I changed out the blower motor. It could have 10 years or 10 minutes.

With such parts; I do not understand "original/rebuilt" for the sake of a tag. A rebuilt is still new?? Refurbished...whatever you want to call it.

 

It's just about keeping the original part ....if the op wants to. His choice. I'd go to NAPA.

 

I was not intending to offend. Just, for me; if your replacing internals with new parts just to keep a date stamp on the outside...it negates the stamp. That being said. I respectfully bow out.

 

No offense taken here. Just giving the op options.

 

I apologise. On second re-read. It WAS about options. Not against my opinion. Sorry.
