Jeremy Jon Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 Anyone seen one of these or similar, for a reasonable price , 1/24 scale, in their internet travels? I'll paint and make my own decals for it, but this basic pump with nozzle I found a couple on eBay, but are asking $30+ for them each, which is nuts IMO Please let me know of any leads, Thanks guys!
jeffb Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 scale modeling by chris has some similar http://www.scalemodelingbychris.com/index.htm they may not be on his site, but i know he casts them
Jeremy Jon Posted August 30, 2013 Author Posted August 30, 2013 Funny you should say that, I was just looking through his page He has a link buried in there for something similar, is asking $20+shipping per pump!? http://www.scalemodelingbychris.com/124-GasPumpsPage2.htm
Foxer Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 I just got the pumps by Chris and was very happy with the quality. They are flat sided without the curve shown on your example and you would have to make the top globe. He has decals for many brands but don't know is Sinclair is included. They would be easy to do with ink jet decals. The pump handles are very nice and it has rubber hose.
Jeremy Jon Posted August 30, 2013 Author Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) Thanks Mike, good info The example pic is just off the web, the one I'm doing is quite unique, but very similar to that one in shape and style, I can detail it further to be more exact from a resin pump set, but if I'm going to spend $20 on one small item, it would be nice to have the globe inclusive Jeff, do you have a link to the globes you mention? Thanks Edited August 30, 2013 by Jeremy Jon
