100% UNMOLESTED AND UNRESTORED-FACTORYORIGINAL-1 OWNER
1927-WAYNE MODEL 515E ….SERIAL #38828-G….. Patent 1917
GLASS TOP HAND OPERATED ANTIQUE GASPUMP.
THIS PUMP WAS STILL IN DAILY USE AS OF1992.
I WAS TOLD BY THE OWNERS WIFE IT’S STILLFULLY FUNCTIONAL.
Here is the story behind thispump.
I bought this pump at a farmsale in Ladysmith Wisconsin 4-25-2015.
The owner of the farm passedaway 3 years ago at the age of 85 years old. I talked with the owner’s wife andshe told me that their family has been on this farm for over 120 years and thatthis pump was installed from what her husband told her about 1927. It waslocated next to the barn and was still connected to the underground tank whenwe removed it. They used it to fuel their farm equipment until about 1992 whenthey retired.
The condition of this pump isexceptional. The glass cylinder is factory original and in perfect conditionbut, it needs to be cleaned from the inside. It doesn’t appear to have everbeen painted and has 88 years of patina on it. Which includes some lichengrowing on the top dome.
There are no dents or rustholes anywhere. It is complete with the 2 original cover plates for the bottomcast iron base. A few of the cover screws are missing.
To remove the pump we had tocut the 2 pipes below the couplers with a sawsall. The couplers were stuck fastand I wanted to keep it all original.
You are more them welcome topersonally inspect this Gas Pump.
It is now located in mygarage in Birchwood Wisconsin.
