Anyone out there have a photo of a restored Wayne 275. Doesn't have globe holder attachment. Thanks, Sam

Thanks, Dick. I went to a gas engine/tractor show & stumbled across this Wayne 275 at a bargain price. Some big boys got it into my minivan & now I have to figure out how to get this 400+ lb. beast out of the van. It's 99% complete. It'll be my winter project. Anyone else have one restored?

Slide a 3-4" ABS pipe under center, tie base to Wife's Bumper, release parking brake & hit the gas!
Next time buy a Pickup!

The professor is correct; if you collect pumps (or darn near anything) you should have a P/U. Or two.......

Hey, I have a nice utility trailer that I haul pumps with. So three innocent guys went to a show in a minivan to enjoy things, & the fourth guy cancelled at the last minute, leaving a 4th removable seat empty.
No one told me that a pump was going to show up. Now, I don't know whether to thank the 4th guy for not going or curse him!

Wayne #275 waiting for you guys to help unload it! My van got two mpg less on the way home. I put a 4' pipe up into the cylinder & left the rest stick out past the rear bumper. Then I took a bottle jack / with blocking & started raising it. The van kept coming up but the pump never raised off of the floor. So I'm just hauling it around until the right time!

LOL. This reminded me I once sold a barber chair to a guy. I saw him about six months later and he still had it in his van.

IF the 4th had not Bailed, ya could have loaded on ROOF RACK!
Hitch up the U.Trailer, drag to a Real Lumber Yard, slide forks together & move pump to trailer.

Don't know much about that pump but I do know I am never going to buy one. Best enjoyed in someone else's collection.
