Glue the broken bits together, fill the shaft hole with body filler and find a company that does sand castings. They should be able to cast you a new one, even if it is cast in brass, aluminum or iron that you can have machined to fit a new shaft. Otherwise a good machine shop should be able to fabricate a new impeller for you.
It is a good option, many thanks

I am not sure what size your impeller is, but if you are interested, I have one that is 2 7/8" across with three blades.

I will check, thanks

Ignacio: you might look for Chrysler ads from 1930, in your country. Maybe you will get lucky and a picture and a description of what it is might be included.
Hi:
I couldn´t find information on old ads from 1930, thanks for the tip anyway

Ignacio....I love your car and sure wish I could afford it!

I agree that it is the original hood for the car. It just looks like a "European" style hood. It looks to me (by reading the sales invoice) like the chassis was sent overseas and the body was added which is the way Chrysler proceeded with a LOT of their export cars.
I agree with you, that the car might have left the Chrysler factory without a body.
May be the Chilean Local dealer at that time makes different selling bills, one from the car manufacturer and another from the body builder, which unfortunatelly is not available..
-
Very interesting, but if you see at the pictures the top part of the hood follows the line that make the color division when painted (the one that starts on the grill, goes through the hood and the goes down on the cowl and the door side).
Also the horizontal molding that goes all around the car also continues on the side of the hood, upside the louvers.
Both things make me think that the hood is original on the car. Also old pictures from 1960´s ( past owner bad quality pictures) shows the same hood in the car.
What do you think?
-
Thanks Dave.. Very interesting post.
I measure 124.5 inches wheelbase, but may be an error on that if your book says 124. Or the difference may be in the old suspencion that is lower now.
Do you have more info of the Fedco bodies? never hear about them before.
Pictures ?
Which book are you looking at? where can I bought a copy?
What did you say that the hood sides do not match the discription of A 1930 77 SERIES ?
As far as I have research about the 77 series, they came with this type of louvers and the other kind, Pennon louvers I think they are called.

Car has now chrysler 1930 serie 77 engine. the number is W19248.
Engine started a couple of years ago and now turns with no problem.
Cas has original 4 speed transmission. Also have a spare transmission.
picture attached is from the spare transmission.
Engine was apart the car when I bought it, but was installed in the car before.
-
Thanks, now I can see it.
-
Alsancle do you have any picture of a Locke sportsman´s coupe?
seems like you attached a file but I can not see it
-
Hi Alsancle:
Thanks for the tips !!! I completely agree with you that Hershey fields will be a good place to show the car, but I´m find of far away..
I was unable the get better quality old pictures of the car. When I bought it the past owner just allowed me to scan the pictures and they where bad quality so the scans are bad quality too.
If somebody needs special interest pictures just let me know and I can take them.
I´m posting more pictures I have.
I have also the 77 emblem ( not showed in the pictures )

Hi guys:
I boght the car like 6 years ago if I not remember bad. Past Owner have the car since the early 60´s. He gave me the original invoice and other paperwork from that years like the one when the second owner bought the car.
As he told me, the car had have a hardtop in that years which is not available now. The old pictures with the harftop on I posted are from the past owner.
-
The car I have is a Chrysler 1930 serie 77 that was sold new in Chile on may 15 1930 by the local Chrysler dealer.
I have an original invoice from the local dealer that has the following numbers.
Engine W 12721
body is c 108 dw
Sometime in the past the car got another engine.
Car now has another engine, the number is W19248.
Wheelbase is 124.5 inches.
I have contact a lot of people around the world for help to identify the body builder.
I have contacted Danielle Szostak-Viers at chryslerheritage.com. I asked for the build card of my car, The answer was:
" Unfortunately, I was unable to find a build card for your vehicle. The build cards were stored on microfilm. Your build card was missing from the reel. The build card would of had the body number on it.
I am sorry that I am unable to assist you. "
I also tried with a volunteer and the answer from Danielle was:
"Unfortunately, I was unable to find a volunteer here at the archives to give me a 100% answer on what your vehicle is. One volunteer said he believes it’s a 1930 Chrysler 77 2 Door convertible sedan. I am sorry that there is not more that I can tell you".
Also contacted people on hershey swap meet, and a lot of other places.
Most of the people agree that the car must have a Locke body. They said that the construction characteristics and the side molding around the car is Locke. I was told to look at the plate, but where it will be supposed to be with the numbers (under the front seat) , but my car does not have any peace of wood there. I guess that the plate came of with the peace of wood that is supposed to be there.
The car is very unique, some time in the past has a Hard top,, which I do not have now.
Have pictures from now and from many years ago.
The car has no rust, engine is running, only missing things that I remember are hubcaps and shock absorbers and top. Have an extra good condition grille and extra transmission.
Please take a look at these 2 posts of my car
Chrysler 1930 serie 77 identification help
Taking care of international shipping will be not a problem for me.
This car is very unique, Most of the people who I showed the pictures thinks this is the only one known to be in existence. Serie 77 Phaetons have reach prices of over 150 K with average of 120 K. The price of my car correctly restored will easy achieve this values.
I´m asking 32000. May consider an offer.
