Quite a few years ago I made this pump, and gave it to my friend. It is a short industrial pump, but has the same shape as a 900 series. I took a 900 door I had hanging around and cut it to the right height. I was at his shop today and he had it painted a while back. It just needs a color keyed globe and ad glass and get the hose and nozzle hung and it will be complete. I had no idea he had it painted, so it was a pleasant surprise to see it.

Almost a Counter Top model. Looks Good.

LOOKS COOL! Looks even shorter from the high angle. I know a guy out this way who would go well standing next to that in a service station uniform. (we call him Little Richard)! LOL!

I am going to check, I think I have a trim stainless to go across the top area of the door. I may have a better faceplate too. If so I am going to take that pump up a notch for him. He should have had his painter fill that hole on the top. Maybe I could make that the point that the hose comes out and loops down toward the ground.

I like it! Makes me want to get out a short farm pump that was given to me by an elderly lady that has now passed on and restore it.

Looks good. The chrome door edge guard (for car doors) looks good on the door.

Would probably look twice as good with a CHEVRON globe on top! wink
