THE FAN ASSEMBLY IS THE SAME MODEL THAT IS USED IN LATER MODEL
PT `BIRDS.

I PURCHASED THE PARTS AT JOHNSTONE SUPPLY IN GAINESVILLE, FLA.

THE PART NUMBERS ARE:
(THE JOHNSTONE NUMBERS ARE IN PARENTHESES)
38-2515-04 BLOWER ASSEMBLY
(X90-138)
DI056 MOTOR
(S88-542)
POC7.5 CAPACITOR (G21-933)

TOTAL PURCHASE PRICE INCLUDING TAX WAS

$166.45

I would assume that you could purchase all of the parts at any
electrical distributor.
