I am looking at this for my first visible pump to add to collection just would appreciate some info on anything you might see missing that I'm not aware of. Although you can't see glass in picture was told it's original. Would appreciate a price point as well thanks

Looks like a nice original pump, great patina. Bonus is the valve on the side. However, the most important part is covered up. Unwrap it and take a picture.

From what’s shown, missing the drain back cap. But above comment is right...can’t see half the pump. IF it’s otherwise all complete with good glass, should be an 1800-2000 pump. Has a good look to it.

Thank you for your comments I will be going to look at it in person soon

If you buy it, you should seriously consider leaving it as-is. There are LOTS of restored pumps out there. Unrestored, original pumps are getting hard to find and this one has a nice look to it. Good luck with the purchase.

I would venture a guess that the asking price will not be below $2,000, but if it is, jump on it. Looks like a Wayne 615. It is a common visible, but a good starting point for a first visible.

When you look at the glass cylinder look closely bb holes and around the base ect. for cracks.

Will definitely be leaving as is except hose and hose nozzle. That is why it has taken me so long to find one I like
