Erie 77 for restoration - Thu Aug 06 2015 06:44 PM
Hi All
I'm new to the forum.
I recently received an Erie pump and have cleaned it up and now at the point of deciding on a plan for the restoration.
I have cleaned the VR computer and it is working nicely, and, will be sending the frame, base, and shelves out for sandblasting and powder coating, but was considering leaving the doors "as is" as they look kinda cool with the patina. But the paint scheme is not original, there are definite signs of this pump having been spray painted with the doors on, at some point in it's past.
Also the layout seem un-authentic,
Any suggestions ?
