Just finished my first pump and thought I would share it with you guys and see what ya think. It was the farm pump at our place since the 60's or 70's and the one that got me started collecting. I assembled it and painted the frame, Joe Yocom rebuilt the computer, and Mark Sconyers did an outstanding job on the paint. All signage is original, even the topper which was a pain to find, thank you eBay! Also included is a pic of this pump as it would have been in 1956. Hope you guys enjoy it.

EXCELLENT JOB Archimedes. Looks like the pump was lifted from the original ad. Very well done. Thanks for the post.

Excellent job, bet that topper took some looking and it sure makes the pump.

Thanks guys, it turned out far better than I expected it would. The pics don't do it justice. Yes that topper took some looking, so far its the only one I have found in 3 years. Maybe the only one out there left. Anyone else ever seen one at the swap meets?
