I guess this is where I am at this point. Sorry for the barrage of photos. I finally got the knack of resizing the photos! Still looking for a restoreable base with pump unit. A quick flow shutoff valve. The locator fingers I guess I will have to fabricate. A white fabric hose would look better. The "goodwife" indulged me and bought me a price box for Christmas!
