I remember those days, wow my feet were tired shifting the cycle rods, I found one up here parked in the trees also and that guy said it would still pump and said I could have it, I ought to re-build it and train green horns on it. |

Looks like home to me! This pump doesn't have reed switches though, it has poppet valves! |

There's one I seen in middle of nowhere Texas. I know the owner. He was just using it to carry his tools. Now it's growing weeds. |

If you have ever run one of these pumps or other vintage pumps hats off to you . Retirement is your next step unless your looking for a desk job like me. |
