Thanks everyone.

Greg, thanks for posting the pictures of the way it was when you found it. I appreciate it.

Mike, thanks again for selling me the hard to come by 10 3/4 inch Veeder-Root computer. At the time I was looking for one there were two other members looking. They found their`s before I got mine. Considering how rare they are the three of us found them in about a 6 to 8 month period.

Great job an a great pump Matt. I'm surprised it was recognized for what it was given the condition it was found in!

I originally wanted a metal body for the globe. It was painted to match the pump. On the west coast it would have been correct to have a 15 inch on a metal low profile body. Anthony Espinosa has one in original colors that match my pump, maybe he will post a picture of it. I went with a 13 1/2 because I knew a 15 would not fit in my garage. I was surprised to find out it would not fit either. I was able to get a capco on with only 1/4 inch left to the ceiling. I tried a glass body but it would not fit.

Can you cut out the drywall in that area and recess the garage ceiling? With a pump of this caliber it might be worth the effort!
