Hi Old Gas Guys,
Just finished restoring an ECO air stand, Model 242, it’s for sale. We blasted this down to metal, bodyworked it, castings smoothed, and painted with automotive base / clear. Lots of clear, we went crazy polishing this to a really nice shine. Painted pinstripes also buried. Really nice show chrome on here too. Internals all rebuilt. We air pressure tested this to ensure it works and have it ready for hook-up (there’s a couple brass fittings under the black cover at the bottom). We built a platform for the air stand, thought it be easier to display that way, nice and stable no need to bolt it down unless you want to. Please see the ebay listing for better pictures and more detail. Old gas price is $3500.
Ebay listing is 301550899112
- Paul

Hi Wes, most of the ECO air stands had meters. This one is more rare I believe, it has a globe instead of a meter.
