thanks Frank that's a beautiful pump, i had seen pictures of this one. I need to know how long the center trim piece is(spear) the ones on my pump were cut down. I'm guessing aroud 28 1/2". Are the top grates made of aluminum? Thanks for your help. Tim.

I believe I had to make my own lighting in this one also, I didnt have any original spears to go off of just the hole pattern and wear marks on the one original door, I used 1/2 round bar stock and ground the points to match then drilled and tapped the back to match the original holes with studs...Frank
