I have seen those globes before very rare if it's the real deal...Scott B.
Scott... your not wrong there... early rams were cast aluminium but the 1950's brought the vacuum formed technology and subsequently Golden Fleece developed these light up rams. Some original cast rams go up to $1k... have seen original light up rams go for $800 ... just depends on the condition of course.
I rarely use the cast ones as they are awkward to get mounted plus the pump becomes so top heavy and hard to move around. I've finished one 50's pump early last month I'll dig up the pics and put on..
cheers
