Thank you so much Eric for supplying an excellent product and for your prompt, knowledgeable and thoughtful advice!
I am a stickler for details so when I learned Eric was restoring the Pierburg pumps I ordered one right away. Great product at a fair price and customer service is second to none.
The nicely restored pump arrived in perfect condition with excellent protective packaging, and delivery to Japan was smooth and fast. I’m very satisfied with the quality of the service.
So glad I bought my pump from Eric! Car runs great with the original pump. Engine bay now looks complete. Eric was awesome to work with, always prompt responses and always willing to help with any and all questions. I would definitely buy from Eric again.
I bought a rebuilt Pierburg pump for my '69 Beetle, and it is a thing of beauty. I did have an issue with flow at first, and Eric helped me troubleshoot it out (turns out I needed to prime the pump, and then it worked beautifully). It's on my car now and working well. I really appreciate the personal touch and attention to my issues -- I plan on buying another for my Bus, whenever I get around to that project...
Dave,
Thanks for the review; always here to help!
Eric and Air-Cooled Artifacts is the best place for your carburetor and fuel pump needs. Top quality restoration and parts. The customer service is next level and Eric will leave you feeling satisfied and supported. I highly recommend using Air-Cooled Artifacts!
I've been sorting this Lotus White '67 recently, working my way to the level of correctness that it deserves. With only 78K original miles, and a prior owner's fair "restoration" it's doesn't need too much. Luckily Eric has come thru for me again by supplying the correct restored Pierburg fuel pump and 12V coil. Both are now installed, functioning perfectly and look superb. The quality is amazing, prices are fair and I'm just glad to have found him, doing his thing, a few years ago. Keep up the good work Eric! Cheers!

The pump is for my 1967 Karmann Ghia Convertible. It's factory correct but had been sitting for many years as a dealership display. Much of the fuel system has been replaced as insurance against future issues. The replacement pump from air-cooled is perfect!
The Pierburg pump that arrived was a work of art. Detailed to perfection in every way. It came quickly after ordering and was packaged with the upmost care to protect it while being shipped.
The pump works flawlessly and it is so smooth with the correct pressure. Seals included for installation. I know where I go when I need quality, Aircooled Artifacts. Thank you for a awesome product.
I've always been proud (bragged actually) that my car is original, which you do not see today. Even though everything on it has probably been replaced at least once, it looks like it did on the showroom floor. I was at a car show a couple of years ago and someone pointed out it had a Brazilian fuel pump. Ruined my day. When I saw Eric had these available, I had to have one. It is beautiful (and original). Eric was great with any questions I had too. Definitely recommend it!
Replaced my working Brazilian fuel pump with Lane Russell restored German Pierburg unit for aesthetics, wanting 'original', and the quality that goes with that. Crazy, but it was my wife Becky that suggested this, and found these on 1967 VW Beetle (1967beetle.com). She recognized the 'cool factor' and I followed her lead. Delivery was timely, packaging excellent, and then the pump itself -- spectacular pride of workmanship immediately evident. And now we're proud of it. Eric's communication and customer service is 'old school' -- personal, accessible, and knowledgeable.
Buying from Lane Russell is an experience.
The pump was very nicely refurbished. It looked like the actuator arm had even been replaced as I could see no wear from the previous install.
The pump output the perfect pressure to VW specs and was a very even pressure.
My previous after-market pump was outputting more than double the recommended pressure and the pressure was very 'pulsey'.
Even with 3 gaskets the pressure was still above 5psi.
I have no qualms recommending these pumps from Lane Russell.
The personal service from Eric was brilliant and the delivery to Western Australia was very quick even in COVID chaos times.
Love my German Fuel Pump. The attention to detail is second to none. Ordering from the website is easy, safely packaged, shipment arrived on time and follow-up made me know this comapny cares about their customer and product.
Fuel pump was shipped instantly and I was sent tracking information. USPS dropped the ball, shocker, but Eric was a bull dog dealing with them. He contacted me daily. I never had to look for him. Eric was more upset with situation than I was. Fuel pump arrived, well packed and in perfect condition. Couldn't be happier with it and I love his 67only web site.
Not only do they do restoration to perfection, customer support is stellar!
I thought that there was a problem with my restored fuel pump. Eric was in constant contact and ready to support me. It turns out that the pump was fine but I am glad to know that there are companies still out there who care about their customers and take pride in being the best in what they do.

i had been looking for some time for a German Pierburg Fuel pump to suit my Volkswagen 126A industrial engine. I found exactly the correct match here and my expectations were met and exceeded.
It is a blessing to have OEM restored parts rebuilt to exacting factory specifications available for purchase. Certainly my first choice.
Pump worked as advertised.Customer service excellent
I was very pleased all around. Quick service, questions answered pronto. Fuel pump arrived well packaged safe and sound. Looks beautiful too.
I am very happy with this transaction. The pump arrived in timely fashion, and looks very good. It has not been installed yet, but I like it so far!
