First of all,welcome back.I hope you stick around and offer well reasoned comments on other threads;sounds like you have the experience and temperment to so.As Dave noted,I think we need all of that we can get.

As to your pump,very nice work.Out here in New Mexico,not really farming country statewide,that pump in not all that common.Since you asked for thoughts,I'll tell you that out here the pump would go for about $600 -$800 if you found a guy with a nice restored JD tractor to go with it.I say that because back when I was doing old tractors,including JD's,that is about the range they were thinking about.Anything much over that and they will spend more for a Tok 39 or something similiar done up in JD that they can put a pop globe on.Best of luck.

Craig, I think what everyone is missing out on is that; this is the for sale forum not the general discussion forum. The purpose of this forum is for sellers to advertise items for sale and potential buyers to search for items to purchase.

The test for an appropriate comment should be; what I'm about to post will it hinder either party? Some of the comments have tainted or spoiled this thread as far as the sale of this item goes. Potential buyers may not be as likely to pursue the purchase of this pump.

Is that the spirit and intent of this forum? Why couldn't some of the above posters use a bit of grey matter and tact and send a PM instead? After all we are mature adults; with some life experience. Is it really, that difficult to be considerate of another member? We are quick to pull the trigger when someone fails to show us some consideration, but it is okay for us to be inconsiderate?

The Guidelines of this forum category do not allow criticism of the price or condition of the item for sale. But when a seller specifically asks for offers and opinions, that rule no longer applies. It is still expected that members use tact and general application of the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have people do unto you.
