G'day all,

Here are a few pics of my Fry that was restored recently. The Texaco graphics were hand painted by a sign writer. I'm really happy with the end product I hope you all like it!

Special thanks goes out to Robin Wallace for restoring the pump.

Cheers,

Dave (in Australia)

The cloth hose was bought from 'NEIL PERRIN OIL COLLECTABLES' here in Australia. I'm not quite sure if he sells internationally.

Well since no one else would post any other fry cast base pics I thought I would post some of the one I just bought for 1450.00 finished with good glass... I took the glass out to sell off and had to add the conduit this week. I am going to restore it to look like bowserboy's Fry this summer.

Dave,

I think it is one of the best restorations I have seen, you have a right to be proud.
Now, it's time to do the next one. Cheers.

Thanks for all of the feedback. I really appreciate your comments. I'll post some pics of my other Aussie pumps when I get my act together.

Thanks again,
Dave.
