I really don't post that much, enjoy the reading more. But I have had this pump for soooooo long and now I'm darn near complete with it. So I thought I would share it with you guys to see what ya think. All comments appreciated.

Looks like a very nice job. Don't think I ever saw a pump like that in person. Must have been hard finding new/ replacement parts for it. Not like you could pick up a Vics 66 catalogue. Post more pictures of you collection, looks like some interesting stuff in the background

I was very lucky in that most of the parts where there. Usual things wrong, beat lower sheet metal, broken glass and sight glass, had to completely redo the electrical and redo the face plates and numbers. I got it from a good friend of mine and he came over to check it out and we were trying to figure out how long I had it. To our best guess it's close to 18 years. But it was pretty rough when I started.

I need a set of faces like this for my pump. Cant seem to find any repros. Would consider a used set. Dont mean to hijack the thread but would appreciate the help. Super restoration with an eye on detail

Don't know if this will help you but here is the pic I took as they were before I restored them. My first choice would to leave them original but they would have looked out of place had I not. Hope this helps.

Thank you all for your complements. The computer has all of it's number dials and even the original lock and key which I will take pics of tomorrow and upload. It is probably one of my more favorite pumps but each one I have brings a special personality to my mind. Done4.
