Is the other door and faceplate there?I think Jack's book refers to complete pumps.

I had just dug out the dirt from around it. Thats why its dark on the bottom of the door. It is very rusty but no rotten spots so far. Both doors are there but one is not attached. I have it with both the sale plates. This is a former working farm pump with all of the guts still there. Does that make it any better?

$100-$150 pump in my opinion. If it were a "west coast" pump in this condition, maybe $225. But, I'm as far from an expert as one can possibly get, lol.

Again in my opinion, the "guts" just makes it heavier and harder to move.

Forget the book, realistic price is 100-150 tops in that condition

If I understand the pricing in the book correctly, prices are for pumps in this sort of shape..
..Jack correct me if I am wrong.
I paid $200 the book says $350...I sold it for $300.00
The guy I bought it from was happy and the guy I sold it to was happy....all we did was load and unload it.

[/quote] Your right kid that is a very good book. But condition is every thing and different parts of the country bring different prices also. California market different from this market in New Mexico. (ETC).

I appreciate all the help. I'll see if I can get some better pics and get it cleaned up. I knew it was in bad shape, Just didn't really know what it would bring. Seems like I could get more than $150 for parts though... Am I wrong in saying that? With the Nozzle, Doors, Frame, Plates, Computer, odds and ends...?

you might be able to part it out and get your 150.00?? looks pretty rough, most all of the bennetts i find of that model are always rusted out(atleast the side panels are), if you take a good look at it it is probably rustier than you think. the best i would do on that pump is $100.00 - $150.00. but if you like it throw some paint and a sign and a repo globe on it and put it by the garage as is. hav fun with your new pump. chris

Pump book was written 2 1/2 yrs ago & published 2 yrs ago when the economy was still good.
Calif. prices used to be a bit higher When the economy was better, but not now. Unemployment is still close to 11% & that has dropped prices closer to the rest of the country.
Garage sale prices used to be 10 cents on the dollar, now they are closer to pennies on the dollar.
