Kenlowe fan question

Since it is not marque specific, I'll ask here.
I have a Kenlowe cooling fan, previously mounted in my MK2 Jag.
Put in in Singapore probably more than 40 years ago.
I am rehabilitating it at this time for future use, cannot find any information on it (even on Kenlowe's website).
The only part number is on the fan blade assembly, KLM 1005. About a 10" blade, no ring on the outer ends, just bare tips.
Cast teardrop shaped motor mount, black wrinkle finish, raised lettering "Kenlowe Accessories", single mount arm, "J" shaped, adjustable in all directions, two-wire, not internally grounded.
Anybody know if bits are available, and when it was made?
Thanks.
Dave
 
Is there a contact number or email addy on the KL website you mentioned?
 
Yeah, I did the "contact us" bit. Funny, even doing a web search, not coming up with much on this unit.
Found one auction sale, blade looks the same, but the mounting is totally different.
I am guessing under the motor flange on the mount may be a better part number, just not there yet.
It's pretty late in Jolly Olde right now, so if they decide to respond, it will be later in the week.

Surprise....heard back this morning.
1960's vintage, fan blade (should I need one) is available:
However, should you need a new blade to fit the existing motor and shaft, this can be achieved by letting us know the following:-
· ¼” or 5/6” shaft?
· Blower (in front of radiator) or suction?
· Actual diameter etc. of existing blade?

Surprisingly high price for the blade.........plus shipping.
 
Fan blade...maybe. The front face obviously was rubbing on something. Got the blade off...rusted to the shaft, NO setscrew at all, gotta check threads.
I'm just putting it right just in case I need it later. Mounting hole is there, I know it fits, plus it's about 50 years old.
