Default Re: 30 model A water pump ID help

Hello, second post from a long time lurker.
Bought this 1930 from an online auction.
1) Goal is first to get it roadworthy.
Have the 2 volume model A books

Previous owners family said it ran a few years ago? Registration hanging on steering column says 1972. Oil was relatively clean, radiator holds water, all levers seem free. Barn it was in had a roof leak that dripped on driver side roof so gonna have to replace the vinyl roof.

No battery yet so need recommendations on that.

Still at the cleaning/investigation stage.
Ordered a bunch of parts including the belt.
Dropped the pan and cleaned out a couple inches of sludge. Cleaned oil pump and noticed it was missing the lower gasket. Hopefully motor will run. Has the original tools under the front seat. Used the crank to see if the motor was stuck. It hand cranks pretty easy.
Gas tank was dry, added a gallon to see what came out. Gas came out clean amazingly.
