Hi, I am brand new here and I just came in to possesion of Fry Visible Gas Pump. It has a 10 gallon glass cyclinder and it say Model No. 17R, serial No. 30784. It came off the farm where my stepfather grew up in Priceville Alabama. From what Ive seen online it seems to be missing a couple of cover plates on the base and the lights and light conduit. Can you guys tell me more about it or direct me to more info. Not sure if Ill restore it or leave it like it is. Is there anyone in the North Alabama area that restores these? Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you.

Your pump was called the Fry, but it was made by the Guarantee Liquid Measure Co. of Rochester, PA.

Info and pics on your pump are on this page of my website:
