This is my Wayne 71 that was built from a couple Wayne 70s and reproduction Wayne 71 parts. I built the inside parts to make it look like an original pump but not exactly like a 71. I did get help from an oldgasser with the computer brackets. They are recasts of originals. The first pictures are of the outside. I will post insides later.

Here are some inside pictures. The inner top and light manifold were custom built. I will post pictures of them later. A couple reset shafts were welded together so the computer can be reset with the crank. This project was fun and a pain in the a$$ at the same time. If I had an original 71 to look at the inside it would have went a lot smoother. I ended up having to redo some thins because I was winging it as I went.

Thank you for the comments. When I finish a rustoration I do not think they look authentic enough for me so it is nice to here others think they have a realistic aged look.

Here are pictures of the inner top. I used both inner tops from the two Wayne 70`s. First the raised square was removed as well as the flange on either side then the second one was cut in half. Next was welding and more cutting.

The outer top was made with two 70 tops as well. The ends were cut off one and the center cut out of the other. A 71 top has more of a curve than a 70 top. I made a cut at the bend of each corner so I could bend the top upward to gain more of a curve. After welding the three pieces together I put the top on the pump before welding the cuts so I could bend the top to match the upper doors as best as possible. Finished the welding and a little body filler and the outer top was done.
