For that price I would expect a little better mounting then a couple of pieces of cheep plywood. Even at the starting price you might be able to flip them and come out ahead. I would like to get that Atlas.
That is actually a good deal. You could not buy 50 waterpumps, bead blast and paint them for forty bucks apiece. The museum should buy them or somebody should buy them and donate them to the museum. It wouldn't take much to mount them on a better display. It would be a good start of a collection for somebody. If most people are like me, they have a bunch of pumps thrown on a shelf that they are going to do something with someday for a display. Mine will never get done and neither will most people's. Somebody put a lot of time and work in to this.
As Waco Pat Petrillo used to say, It's not MY fault!
Maybe Royce will buy them.
Made my day. I don't use one any more but enjoyed seeing all of them.
Thanks for the link.

I think you should take up a collection to buy them and we can present them to Royce on his birthday! LOL
One of my very best friends likes water pumps on Ts I think less than Royce.
The pumps, and board, came off the Rebbers Sale, in Echo, Mn. about a month ago.
Think how much fun Royce could have showing how well his band saw works at a model T tour or meet!
It wouldn't surprise me if he buys them just so he can cut them up. Fun, Fun, fun.
Maybe save one for Marshall Daut's Dr.'s coupe.
