    It shouldn't be too hard to find a prop for that. You just need the bore size and fan diameter. The pitch of the blade can make a difference & check to see if it's CW or CCW.

    Grainger, google, appliance store.

    You may not be able to contact the original heater manufacturer but you should still be able to get a fan blade. HTH

    well i searched and searched so i took the motor out and ordered a 7 in electric fan.... it puts out something like 540 cfm so i am sure my heat will be killer now.... i hope so it has been really damn cold here in KY and the drives are killing me.... i will keep ya posted on the repair.....

    BTW how can i wire a switch to make the fan blow faster and slower?

    There was one just like it on my 55, I found some info on it some time back that referred to it as a " Harrison Heater " It was apparently original equipment as it was 6 volt and under it was the only place I found a good sample of the original paint color.
