Default Unusual Fan extention

Can someone tell me what specific application this fan extention came from?
Was it a S&C Loyd?

Default Early ?

Hi LYNN - could it be off an early Bren or machine gun carrier?

Does the tag attached to it have any clues ?

(It wouldn't fit my scout by any chance now would it?)

Cheers

Phill

Default Phillip / Charlie

Phillip. I think your Scout has the std one. I pulled this photo from somewhere, I don't own the thing. Just trying to fill in some gaps, and thought it was a Loyd one because this has a big fan on it, and the Starting and charging Loyds probably had those big geny's on them.
The Dodge 3/4 ton radio car and some Fords had the same geny, but fitted with different end plates.
Thanks Charlie. are you able to comfirm that the MkII carrier is the same?

Default Genny

Hi Lynn. yes I seem to remember reading somewhere that the Loyd S&C version had a large auxiliary generator driven by a PTO. Does that ring a bell anyone?

I might have a photo somewhere.

Cheers

Phill

I'm reasonably certain - should fit RichardT's project...

Is the fan assy, Canadian, British, or common to both?

Default Material

Nice pics once again Lynn - this is getting to be a habit on your part - a very good one at that!

Did I understand you correctly that one part of the fan extension drive is made of fibrous material ?

I believe I may have found the other steel half some time ago but it went into a box of random junk and has been filed away.

Cheers

Phill
