Most of the pedal car size pumps I've seen were Gasboys.

I assume your talking about the 3' FIRE-CHIEF 3 sided tin toy pump [shelf[s] on back side] & has a plastic nozzle ?
Wish I could help more.

Found this on ebay; 320254973913 & is the Toy Pump gearhead is asking about.

Nozzle is on top of pump. I emailed seller for a picture of the nozzle, posted or sent.
Seller states parents bought it in early 60's.
gearhead,
Buy this one to make a pair, paint one for SKY CHIEF !

thats it dick... thanks, big guy!

wonder if their handle still has the working clicker as indicated on the box?

would be nice .. the starting price sure is right smile although were not sure about their reserve frown the killer is $40 for shipping frown ours was purchased very, very reasonable at a swap meet

still loving it but still need the lower front mounted 6 1/4 by 10 3/4 decal and clicker handle .. could we possibly dream that maybe they would sell me their nozzle

Seller posted picture of nozzle.
Because item is light wt., should not cost more than $18-20 to ship.

unfortunately their listing still states... $40 for shipping

Ask seller if the shipping is correct to your place. Might make a difference. Don't ask, Don't get !
Where are you located ?
