Anyone have a 1926-29 Dayton 10 gallon visible pump without the top bonnet? In Jack's book page 127 they all show the top sheet metal. I found one and it has no place to hook on the top sheetmetal. If there is a way to put this one there, does anyone have a picture?

The big sheet metal top has a collar that fits in what appears to be the globe holder on the cast top. Hope that makes sense.

Yes it does, just missing the entire top bonnet and the pieces.
Thanks

Check w/ a Restaurant Supply for LARGE Mixing/Salad/Punch Bowl [approx 24" Dia & 8"-10" Depth.
OR
Use the Top off a Large WEBER BBQ Grill [weld up the vent hole & add a globe ring].

[One vendor offers a 6" x 22" SS Salad Bowl that's not even close in appearance to an original [$Cheap, like a Speedo on a Sumo Fighter]]

That's funny Dick. I have one of those speedos on mine and wish i didn't. That's exactly what it looks like. Dave.
