I would like to find a nice Nozzle just for the project of polishing it up for display in my collection. This may be a broad question, but can you give me some examples of nice nozzles and what should I be paying for them? I've seen a couple brass ones on ebay for like $80. Is this a decent price? I have no knowledge at all on these things.
P.S. I've polished a couple aluminum water pumps in my day so I do have knowledge of how much work this may be.

Here's an example. Brass Buckeye. This would polish up beautifully!!!
Is this worth $80?? I mean I don't know if I was more patient could I get one for $20.

This is not for a pump. I just want to polish up the nozzle and hang it on the wall. I just have no idea to the value of these and dont want to spend money I don't have to.

If you will pay the shipping--I will send you a Buckeye 800B for free. It may have a dent or 2 in the spout but it will all be there! Only catch is that you have to donate $10 to the Old Gas website and post pictures after you have finished it!
