RUSH finished out many FRY's after they were bought out by WAYNE Pump Co.

Here's another question! Any idea what this is? Looks like something that was added at sometime! I am missing the two bottom panels and the one where that pipe comes up out of the pump!
What's this?

Return pipe & nozzle lockup was done at the factory. IF your going to collect pumps you need to get Jack Sim's Gas Pump Book.

Agree with DB. I was watching that pump and waiting for it to keep dropping in price. I am in KY also, email me at philmccauley@hotmail.com
Thanks, Phil _________________________________________________ Looking for any old pumps, or nice 5 gallon cans.

RUSH made the Yellow casting w/ & w/o light arms. Yours is w/o. What other questions do you have concerning Top?

Thanks! I am unfamiliar with rush. We really like the look of the conduits and light arms. I guess I need to obtain a Fry top and globe cup to install the conduits and light arms! Anyone have any pics of the Fry with Rush casting and light arms?

NO, you need a different Yellow casting that is made for the 2 light arms. Using the RUSH Bonnet casting , there is no place to mount the FRY Globe Cup. Best old pic I have of RUSH Top. Conduit from pump body is on back side [90 deg from light arms].

IF you convert to a 5gal [less expensive than 10gal glass], you'll have to buy; cylinder, inside piping, selector tubing, selector handle, fingers, Bonnet, Cup, conduits. BUT the 5 gal #17 DID NOT have light arms like a #117 10gal.

Got to love this group! Now I get it. I must have the rush top & casting with a Fry cylinder base. Anybody have a rush casting with the two light outlets to trade or sell? I can fabricate a conduit from the cylinder base up to the top now that I see how it goes! I see the purpose of the slot cut in the top! Thanks for the picture!

This is what you have & how the conduit should be hooked up. Showing w/ globe holder in open position for EASIER Cleaning of cylinder. You are also missing a Close Off plate on bottom of Globe Holder.
