Dave,
VPW, Roberts, and maybe Sam Winer in Ohio should have fuel pumps for this truck. I have a WC12 (230) with the small diameter, single diaphram fuel pump and a WC 53 (230) with the large diamter, single diaphram fuel pump. I have learned to carry a spare fuel pump in my WC12. I went to a vehicle display 80 miles from home, and my fuel pump died when I got there. So I was able to change the pump on site. If you are using vaccuum wipers, get a double diaphram unit (late WC and M37). Make sure you get a modern diaphram for your fuel pump. A military style hand primer is a very useful feature on the fuel pump, mine has been a life saver.
Good luck.
