UPS it to Phil Harris at Fairborn Studebaker. Usually around $400 to rebuild if it's in decent shape.

Thank you Matthew David will enjoy looking at this. I had heard the name John Erb just hadn't seen it in print couldn't remember it long enough to check it out. Thank you

It is not that big or heavy to ship. I would be more concerned with experience and quality than location. Walt Bottjer, in NJ, did the last one for me, but I don't know if he does tham anymore. He was at Lancaster, but this subject did not come up.

Hey Anne,

Would you believe there used to be a guy in Madera(!) that sold and rebuilt the Orange Whirly Things! Name was J.C. Herndon. Used to advertise in TW. He moved to Texas and died a few years later. I believe his widow advertised and then sold his remaining inventory. Always wondered who bought it.

John Erb is the most knowledgeable person out there on the supercharger.

He has also developed a number of modifications to improve the performance and life of these units.

I know John Erb is an old experienced McCulloch and Paxton builder, in fact he built the unit on my Avanti. However, don't short change Nimesh Solanki....Check this out
