I could really use more photos and real video. I will pay for the video to be digitized.

wow i would like to say that brings back memories but i think nightmare is more like it

i finally sent my old 600 to the great pump job in the wrecking yard last year  and

it din't hurt letting it go at all  but i will say back then ill bet that 600 yard pour inpart 2

was a big deal

thanks todd for digging these up

Todd cool vid. All I can say If todays opererators could go back in time and run the vintage pumps for one day half of them would quit.
