I found a Tok 36B that looks to be in good shape. I can't tell from the picture but the top looks to be like a glass top or a metal top. Did they make a metal top that looks like the glass top? It's not the 4 add glass top, and it does have the lines that match the pump. Jack has a glass top pump listed at 2K, but I didnt see any pumps with a plain steel top, so did they make a plain top and if so, how much is one worth? Thanks,

Kyle

IF they did I've not seen an advertising pc or brochure for it.
The 36 was made w/ a solid, glass or 4 adv glass top [IF the visi is in the top of face, it's a 36B].

I got a 36B from a friend that had a "chopped" top on it. The top must have been broken at one time, so the four sides were cut off flush with the top portion and then bolted to the cast top of the pump. The cast top also needed a little "cutting" with a grinder to make it fit. I believe DB posted a PIC of one just like it a couple years ago when Seth had one for sale. Sure looks better than a chopped top pump. Brady

Well, the pump sold before I could get it. The top looked to be made of steel. It had lines that matched the pump, so it was original to the pump. I did later look in the pump Bible and see that they did make a steel top.I just haven't seen any that looked like a 4 add glass that didn't have the add glass. Missed out on a deal. Can't get them all I guess. Oh, and it didn't have a visi on the face, so I'm guessing it had it on the outside? Or did they make stripped down verzions without a vizi?
