I need a few gulf parts. These are odd ones. I need (3) three each see picture. Or, if anyone knows where I can obtain the parts, how to make the parts or use something else.

Thanks
davidwski


Description: these are the parts I need to finish the pumps

When ever I am faced with needing stuff that isn't readily available, I usually figure how to make them? These don't look too difficult? Part of the challenge is discovering you own inner ability to overcome a small bump in the road. I notice that a lot of guys come onto this site asking for all the tricks that the older restorer's have learned by trial and error. Do it yourself and you'll appreciate your results more.

...the one on the left could probably be made from small PVC pipe and a plastic washer...it's just a riser to hold the panel off of the frame, and isn't seen when installed...

...these are the most fragile items on these old Gulf pumps, and are always in bad shape...seems like there would be enough of a market to reproduce them?...
