Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion Fry Pump

I am always interested in pictures of pumps that are not shown in either of my two gas pump books. I have identified about 300 more pumps (this includes 100 that were pulled by the publisher, from the 2nd book).
I am also trying to identify every pump ever made, right up to today. I recently got some nice sales brochures for Bennett pumps from the 70s, 80s & 90s. I know that almost no one is collecting them, buy why wait?

In the beginning I felt I was a collector of petroliana, now when people ask me what I do, I tell them I am a Historian.

Is $800 a fair price -

Any idea of where to come up with the top pieces to turn it back to a Fry 17?

Thank you all for the input I have received so far.

I'd say $800-1000 is a fair price.
To return it to a 17 you'll also need some plumbing parts, gallon stops, lever, conduits, globe cup etc.
Iowa Gas is a great place to start looking for original parts.
Ron Scobie might be able to help on recast top if you don't locate an original.
Don Beaver @ Vic's can probably help on the other parts.
