I'm wanting to restore my National A38 back into a Johnson pump. My question is, are the curved add glasses hard to find? So far in my searcing I haven't found any. I have seen one pump on the internet with these add glasses, so I'm wondering,did Johnson use National A38's? If they did make them, and they are out of my price range, I would buy aftermarket ones, but I can't seem to find those either. Thanks for the help. Kyle

Dont' know if I've ever seen them either. You might try Tway, he can probably make you a set. Just look under the user list tab at the top of the page sfter you sign in to find him. Shoot him an email or pm with your request.

I agree with Ohio , T-way can hook you up I'm sure.

I agree Jim will hook you up

I have seen an original A-38 with Johnson ad glass. It was one of the best pumps that I had ever seen found. Porcelain panels and Johnson ad glass, all complete.

From what Jim's told me it's hard making curved glass because the vinyl doesn't like to stretch to fit the curvature. That could have changed though.

Thanks for the reply guys. I emailed Jim to see what he has to say. I got a response saying they are at Dixie gas this weekend, so I'm waiting for a reply back. I haven't seen much Johnson Gas stuff of any type. Is it typically hard to come by? I haven't been to any of the big shows yet, and I never see original Johnson gas stuff on Ebay. Just wondering if it's hard to come by.

Dan Matthews is doing a auction in Oct. that has Johnson gas stuff. Click here for auction listing.

Try Mike Slama [he advertises on here], think he does other A38 glasses. Maybe get the blanks anyway.

Hi, Kyle. I just sent you a PM about Johnson Oil. John in Wisconsin
