Default Somewhat pumped up !

In anticipation of two weeks of abject boredom I decided to restore an old stirrup pump. Yes,I know it's not on par for my 32 Ford but it looks pretty.


The brass thumb screw locks the piston assy in place when not in use.


I am NOT taking orders for any so please don't ask !

A bones; I believe the pump is for a Model T or perhaps an A and doubtless I am about to be shot down in flames by those who know better. OUCH !

David,


I also think it is of Model T vintage. I've never had a T, just one of the tire pumps, although the brass era car versions have always appealed to me.


As usual for you, impeccable workmanship on the pump.
