I think I want to put a 15 steel globe on my Mae west
But I have never seen one before in person
So I have questions
Why do some say low profile?
Is there a high profile?
Is there just one maker of the steel body,s?
Do they look the same if more then one?
Do all use a snap ring to hold lens in place?
I'd like to have it as tall as possible (I know sounds stupid )lol
Is there a site that list big selection of glass lenses as I have not decided how I want to paint the pump yet
ORIGNALY I was thinking puting Hudson gasoline but have never seen that for the 15 inch body's
Thank ya

If you want tall, why not get a 16.5" globe instead? You might need Jim at T-Ways Graphics to make the lenses for you, and you'll need to find a 16.5" body.

Just an FYI, that logo is way too new for a May West, unless that doesn’t bother you, then do what makes you happy. Just didn’t know if you knew.
