So my son loves signs and pumps something we have done together since he was 4 . Now 19 he took his own money and purchased a Wayne 60 pump . With some help from dad . And a great friend of ours with alot of mentorship and help how to do things . He took on the task of taken pump apart . Cleaned / scraped / purchased new screws / re threaded holes / rewired lights ( with some help ) !!! 👍 purchased the add glass / nozzle / hose / got motor running again / went to local hardware store had some glass cut / stained pump . He finally finished it today . We had a good time doing it learning how to do it together. And look forward to doing more . I couldn’t be prouder of my son. ❤️

Looks great. When I first started reading I thought it was going to be a full restoration but finished it is the way I like them.

Hi Matt yes we like then just how we find them . Mother Nature is the best artist ! No one can copy or marcher work lol ! We love the patina look ! We do have one pump that’s been redone ! From years ago looks good but it’s not my style . Bu thank you for comment he has plans to get started on his next pump 👍
