What is it..again!

3 Attachment(s)

Once again I would ask the knowlegable members of this forum to identify a couple of items as I clean out my collection. The first I thought, was a turret traverse hydraulic motor. The mounting pad is curved as if to fit the curved turret ring, the tag says Pesco Hydraulic motor (M588) but now I am unsure as it seems too light for a large turret. Could it be Staghound, M3 or Locust ..any body have ideas? Second item I believe to be a standard closed cab, Dodge door hinge any one know for certain? All replies appreciated.

Pesco Products made gear pumps and parts for Lockheed Ventura aircraft - so is it perhaps an aircraft turret drive?

hinge

Hinge is Chev or Ford, same as on rear doors of my Chev 6 Seater

Cesna branded hydraulic pumps are seen in the logging industry Mike, so I don't think that necessarily indicates aircraft parts.
It looks a bit heavy to be aircraft related to me (based entirely on no knowledge)

Pesco were supplying pumps and other hydraulic components to to anybody that had a requirement for them. I well remember Pesco pumps being used on the DC3 (C-47) and I'm fairly sure the DC4 (C-54).
The hinge looks very much like Chev / GMC.
