I said I was going to try my best to get my 70 together before the end of the month so I could post it on this thread. Well, I'm almost there but I am picking up a couple of parts from Tom at Iowa to finish up the nozzle rest so I can put the hose and nozzle on it. I won't be back til next months POTM is underway so here it is. It had the original id tag still on it so I ran the numbers and this pump was manufactured in December of 1937. Eighty years old this year! I guess it got a face lift for it's 80th. smile Oh, and after asking the questions about the faceplate glass earlier I discovered that I had the backing plates that went behind the face plate that holds the glass in after all. I had never seen one done like this, I guess it is specific to this make and model of pump. I'd be interested to know if any others use this method. I just cut 1/8" glass and it sandwiches perfectly between the faceplate and aluminum backing plate, keeping the glass in front of the computer numbers as they turn. Pretty cool. I've enjoyed doing this pump even though it fought me the whole way every time I tried to make something fit. No pain, no gain I guess......GB
