I'm just into signs, that's all....... Got this Fry 73 from keithia and racecop's family (Thanks,guys). My adult son lost the camera with before pics. Was red with a coat of green underneath. Was going to just put a globe and hose/nozzle on it. Yeah, right. Body and glass and interior are original. Add ons are aftermarket. (not into aftermarket stuff,but.....) Cleaned the inside of cylinder and gallon markers, blasted and painted. Sure I have favorite companies, but I stayed generic. Different/universal. Wanted to display it outside so others can enjoy also. Lots of comments. Looks best at dusk. Next up, a sign pole from the same family (What were the odd of that,Keith?)

Keep telling yourself that...LOL. Either get help now or just walk over to the dark side.

"I'm just into signs, that's all......."

Denial is the first sign of being hooked on pumps. LOL
That is one great looking pump.
Nice Job!!!

Stu that looks really nice and in a very nice setting. I will have to see that in person sometime. I hope you have that bolted down somehow as I would hate to see it tipped over or worse yet stolen. I am sure you will do something nice with the pole also. Maybe we can find you a sign next!!

Thanks, guys. Yes, it's bolted to 24"x44" base.
