I have been asked to run more of the stainless steel trim shown here. If there is enough interest I will make a small run. I'm not interested in the folks who say "I'll take some" and are never heard from again. I'm guessing the prices to be around $15-$20 each. Please call or email me (no PM's please) with how many pieces you would want. You may be asked to prepay. Ron

This might be the craziest post ever put on this website. So, I will start there, Mr. Scobie and I do not get along, he has his way of selling things, I have mine, just do what he want you to do. He has reproduced many items that many of us could never afford to even repo just one of. As far as I know he has not done this for him self, but for the hobby. Just like myself (I am 84) Ron is getting old, one of these days, he will decide enough is enough.
The things Ron is willing to make another run of, is not for his benefit, it is for the hobby. Ignore the price (which I believe is too low), pay it, because as fast as these items are disappearing, so are the people who are willing to repro these items.

Jack I often wonder what will happen when the "Guiding Lights" fade from the hobby. I am 74 now and still buy, sell and restore pumps, because I love the hobby. Not because I need the money. I know Ron very well and consider him a good friend. What will people do when he calls it quits? Where will people go for knowledge? You have printed your last "gas pump bible". Ron is slowing down on rare parts production. Thanks to Scott Benjamin, we still have the best source for globe information. Tom Buckles has the largest parts collection in the hobby. Ron is more than fair on his prices. Kudos to all of the "Guiding Lights" who have supported the hobby all these years.

Thanks. There's now more responses to this post than interest in the parts. Maybe after Carlisle or Hershey there will be interest. If not I can live with it.
