With so much interest in air meters lately here is a picture of us at a Kansas City car show, last June.  I actually got all those meters, the tent and the tables in that HHR and still had room for Cindy an myself. Jack Sim

Very nice.
Jack
Do you spray paint or powder coat your air meters?

The purple one. It is a "Air Scale" Model 25, they called it the "Jr." Their original literature states that it was purple so I had it powder coated purple, the only problem is that I can't get anyone interested in it and I believe the reason is the color.
Every meter shown in the picture is powder coated. ECO powder coated their meters for about the last 40 years. I found who they were buying the powder from (Powder by the Pound) and also found the color. It is called "Mirror Red."
A little surprised no one asked about the meter on the far left. It is a Romort "Arno" Model 32D meter. It is the only known dual (two heads, two hoses) meter ever made.
As for the 26 face, I used to buy them from Ron Scobie, he won't sell to me anymore so give him a ring.

My 1st thought was that was something you homemade. Very cool!
