Thanks all for the replies!! The farmer is in his mid 80s and is doing quite well, other than a little slurred speech, he is still mobile. I don't think he really wanted to restore the pump, I think he just enjoyed me coming over and talking about the old days and history of the area, every time I went there we would talk for 1 to 2 hours, he is going to look for a photo of the pump on the old homestead from the 30s so I can make a copy of it. Les, the pump will be staying inside, I just took the picture of it outside.I will have questions for you guys in future as it seems some things are missing. Thanks again, Brian
