There are more pumps to come, I'll mix it up a little. Clean shop hugh? That 57 is a three door, two on the right, one on the left.

What a fabulous collection.
I wish the pumps had been identified. At least half of them are not in my book. What a treasure, is there anyway we could identify the pumps as they were shown?
When I get back from a vacation, I will post around 150 pictures of a collection that will amaze you. Not only pumps that you have never seen, but twins.

The Gentleman that has the collection has 'people' that while on jobs, scowered the countryside for pumps; they bought em all. I only had time to view the pumps in the short time I was there, much less document them. The original ID tags were preserved when ever possible. As I understand it, the greater part of the collection is still unrestored and under wraps.

I am a restorer and a purest at heart. Some folks call me anal. In my opinion a person can do anything they want to an inanimate object that they personally own. As long as the guy doesn’t abuse his wife, harm his kids or kick the dog, it is ok with me.

Nice group of pumps thanks for sharing! It's kind of like my place. Well at least the trees are the same color.
