The Erie 753 I have had hanging around for about five years is finally getting a restoration. Perhaps 50 hours of time has gone into the reconstruction of the LACE (rusted) top. It brings tears to my eyes knowing that it is possible to see it as a complete pump. About half of the sheet metal was on the pump in the form of a see-through BABY DOLL gown. The one piece of metal I am desperate to know more about is where the nozzle hanger is and where the ID was placed on the metal. Any collectors able to provide me with photos, accurate measurements and other details of the parts on the metal sheet would be more than appreciated. Does the front sheet panel that is hinged have a key lock?

By the way, I don't even want to know if Dick Bennett has 34 Erie tops that fit my pump. That will not only create tears. I will be crying!

Thanks, Koz

Koz,
Sorry. I don't collect ERIE 753 tops, no place to put adv glass. Although they would be a good globe holder on a shelf !!

Dick,

Nuts,I was hoping to get a response from you, but expected something Earth shattering that would help me in my restoration. What did you do with the Bowser clock mechanism I traded for the Wayne 615 part?
