I think this trip was late 80's but only got a picture of stuff unloaded. Damn I never thought back then of taking
pictures of the places I found the stuff.

I will post some pump pictures a bit later in another thread. I wasn't a big pump guy back in the day as had no where to store them, but did buy a few
and some that I couldn't buy and some that I should have bought but wasn't pump savy enough back then.

I will save you all from more long winded stories. lol

Great stories, indeed! However, pictures do not do it justice ...

I happened to view your collection (youtube clip).

What an amazing collection you have put together. Great taste on your part!

We completely disassembled the 2 Wayne 492s replaced any broken or striped bolts with original Brass fasteners . Made everything work such as pump and valves cleaned them and left them in there original condition.
