Hello,
I have had this 20+ years in this condition. It was sand blasted body and doors only. I don't have any other pieces to it. Can someone identify it and give a value.
Thanks All

Appears it's a early 1940's Bowser 575.

It is a 575, but missing tons of parts like all the stainless trim, the computer, access cover,door latches...just to name a few things. The value would be minimal. To get the most out of it you would part it out piece by piece.

The cost of all those missing parts will add up when you hunt them down. You might be better off buying a 575 with beat up sheet metal and combining the two to make one pump.

That makes the most sense.

Personally, I would possibly brand and paint the doors and keep them as wall hangers for the shop and part off and sell the rest to recoup costs.????
