It's been just under 6 months since I posted the last water pump find snafu.
And yesterday I found this water pump on the "demo" shelf next to a cast iron one. Both were the same price. Neither had gaskets. But I already have those. The cast iron was painted black and some paint had been scraped off in handling. So the pretty one came home.

Believe it or not, I found another highly polished water pump for $50.
When I flipped over the pump, 4 of the 6 bolts were missing off the back plate. That was a big red-flag. I opened the back and sure enuf, no impeller!.
I took it over to customer service and shared my discovery. Their only explaination was that someone did not realize anything was missing.
...Ok...let's go with that...
