I have two pumps that appear to be Martin and Schwartz model 80's. One has a tall base and the other has a very short base. Is there a difference in value because of the base and the height of the pump? I am about to start the paint work on both pumps and I am at the point where I have to decide which pump ends up in which color scheme.

Thanks,

Doc

Thanks, I believe that both of my pumps are tall tops. Is it possible to have a tall top and short base? My pumps have the sight glass in the top dome section above the doors and both have a globe.

Thanks,

Doc
