My brothers late model Alpine, same description as yours below, also has
the six blade fan. He has owned it for almost thirty years. I rebuilt the
engine when he bought it. It did not appear to have been molested in any
way, (it did not have any "wrench marks" on it).

A friend sent me copies if the parts manuals showing all three fans. The
late SV's did have a six blade fan and from the pictures... it's not the
same fan as the early cars. All I need now is a Serial number to match with
this fan.
I feel so relieved!!! All those years thinking I was an outlaw with a
non-factory fan! Though admittedly it's not one of the important things in
life (and considering my car is now a compilation of all Series I-V), at
least that part now rests better.
