My name is Randy and my father in law Ronnie has been wanting to restore 3 old pumps for over 40 years. He actually used the Clear Vision as a kid out on the farm. If you're ever in NW Oklahoma around Arnett, drive by and take a look! Mike at Vic's 66 pointed us here and the help has been fantastic. What a hobby to have! I've posted a couple of times for ID help and I want to show a couple of photos of the 1st restored Clear Vision that we have done. We only have the gallon indicator left for this one, as the etched glass broke during de-construct, so we used a poly. Meantime, we decided to do the final 2 at the same time, which are under my other posts. A Wayne 515 and a Fry 117. It's difficult when you have no ID plates or markings and that's where you have all been fantastic to point us in the right direction. Ronnie, is elated and has a little pep in his step! We are having a great time tinkering daily until we get this all done. Here's a couple of pics for the Clear Vision, can't find the before photos. After almost 100 years, it was all still intact and working, not even too bad on the rust. Thanks to you all again.

I put in a like, but one should throw out praise when its due. Thats quite the dedication to scratch an itch that's been brewing for 40 years. Fantastic work!
