Joe, are you sure the exterior light kit is a reproduction. A friend and I found a barn fresh BD 20+ years ago with the same light, and have never seen another til today, certainly haven't seen anything available on the market.

Seems like dodo had one for sale a number of years ago. Kinda wish I would have bought it then.

I have a light assembly like the one pictured. I don't know of anyone that reproduces it. The glass jars are a little bigger than the ones in the pump for lighting faces. I think mine are 4inch glass. Spencer

I will measure the glass and determine the length and width.

That’s the one, he always wanted to reproduce some, but never did. I think they would be very popular, it’s a boring pump that needs a globe on top.

If that light/globe holder is not original someone did a good job on it. The arms look a little short. The glass jars are smaller than the ones I have seen. These are rare, I have only seen a few. This one was stored at my place ( not mine ) for a while.

That is true, but the light arms have a 90 degree bend so it looks like a Fry 117 when installed.

The glass jars are 4" long and 3-1/3" wide. The light arms are the same length as original arms. I used measurements from an original light kit to make the reproductions. The light kit required many hours of planning, making molds, sand castings, getting the light arm angles accurate, drilling, tapping, etc. I don't plan to make any more light kits.
