FROM WHAT I CAN SEE THIS IS A COMPLETE PUMP FOR THE MOST PART. THE METAL IS VERY FATIGUED AND RUSTY. PUMP IS PRETTY STRAIGHT AND I THINK IT'S A "WIDE." IS IT WORTH THE $400 FIRM PRICE THEY ARE ASKING? I WOULD ASSUME SO.   I BELIEVE IT'S BEEN AT THIS LOCATION SINCE THE 50'S. THE PUMP WAS BOUGHT 2ND HAND AND USED AT A FARM.

What a deal. That pump looks super cool sitting there just the way it is but for $400 it needs a new home...

Doc,
Really? Why arent you posting this in BOTW?
I hope you post before Jack Sim or someone else does telling you to buy the "never leave home without it" book. LOL
DB means standard globe mount for this pump, not to confuse with Standard Oil the company.
Good Luck,
Kim

I'VE KNOWN ABOUT THIS PUMP FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS. IT BELONGS TO LOCAL WOMAN WHO'S HUSBAND RAN A NURSERY AND YARD. HE'S GONE NOW AND SHE RUNS A LOCAL BREAKFAST AND LUNCH EATERY THAT BEEN AROUND FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. WHENEVER I ASKED HER IF THE PUMP WAS FOR SALE THE ANSWER WAS ALWAYS "NO!"
RECENTLY MY TOWN TAX ASSESSOR FRIEND HAD MENTIONED THAT IT WAS NOW UP FOR GRABS. SO WE WENT AND LOOKED AT IT. HE PASSED ON IT SINCE HE ALREADY HAS ONE AND SEVERAL OTHER PUMPS IN NEED OF A RESTO.
