Top casting w/ globe holder are Similar to a BEACON. Indicators are same as some used in DAYTON's.

POSSIBLY a pump made just before or during the depression as Lots of companies went out of business, were taken over by similar companies, parts were combined w/ others........

FRY was sucked up by other companies; WAYNE needed a EAST Coast Manufacturing plant & finished several 17/117 w/ WAYNE parts.
RUSH Finished several 17/117 w/ RUSH parts.
WE have seen several TOKHEIM 850's w/ CORRECT MEASURE Visi's.

Until someone comes up w/ a complete pump like your, all you have at this time is a Cluster*uck of Parts w/ a broken cylinder.
Frustrating

All the number shown are casting numbers and they don't mean anything.

Try to assemble it, even if it is laying down, doesn't have to be bolted together, it might ring a bell with someone.

NOT a G&B T-176 or 177. Neither had a Frame [pipe or angle], Cast Bonnet/globe holder.
Indicators are Same as used by DAYTON.

Yes your Cylinder Top Lid [jar lid] does appear to be a G&B.
Cast Top w/ Globe holder does look similar to the G&B 67 Top Casting [I've never had a 67].
But there are Several things Wrong in that link that "They Claim to be Historic Correct" for the T-178.
[Picture #17 shows the pump unit & base for a WAYNE 615]

The cyl. base casting has 3 pipe frame & Base has 2 inner round holes that were used to support the pump mech, not frame mounts.

...also a 24 inch globe fits it when assembled

Say what? Ya lost me.
What does the Cylinder dia. meas. Outside to Outside & Heigth?

The cylinder glass on mine is 12 inch 24 high. Sorry said globe there. Maybe I have a mix of Wayne and G&B.

I haven't seen any WAYNE parts in your pictures. In the link you posted is where I seen the WAYNE pump mech., frame & base.
MOST G&B's used a 12 1/2" dia. cyl., the 67 10gal. used a 13 ?/?" dia. cyl.

Where in Calif are located? I'm South of Santa Barbara, North of LA.
