Good morning Dave:
I am a restorer and enjoy the pumps. Keep some and sell some to get others that I like or would like to have. The first 850 went to a friend of mine who in turn went to a friend of his. I am doing two 850's now and can't decide what brand. I just like them in blocked primer just to enjoy the pumps. I believe that if I were to brand them with something that I would like and then were ever to sell them, they would most likely not be the brand that the new owner would want. Thus we just saw that with the display wayne 71 that was just on. If you have a green pump, someone will want a yellow one. Having them in primer, plating, and all parts there make it for a enjoyable viewing of the pump itself. Just wished that the outcome of the last auction was different, for It was a real slap in the face. Hope to see more of your work, maybe some pictures on here, always great to see pictures.
Thanks Craig
