Does anyone have an opinion of value on this rare pump? I was told it is a model C-110 from 1922. It is designed to operate on electric or manual. complete and original except for half of the lower skin. I have had it for over 15 years and havent seen another like it! thanks for your imput.

I'm not a gas pump value expert, but here are my thoughts. The Bowser C-110 in Jack Sim's Illustrated Guide to Gas Pumps 2nd Ed. is shown in mechanical pump configuration and valued at $2800 if complete. While the missing half skin does count against the value, I believe your pump's configuration of both electric and mechanical make it very desirable to a serious gas pump collector. Remember that parts for a very uncommon pump will be very hard to find, possibly requiring them to be custom made.

Pretty dang cool pump, as Jim stated above parts are hard to find. I’d value it at 3500 as is.
