1) Aermotor
1) AY McDonald
1) Unknown, but has Houston Texas cast into lower part of pump.

Pumps on Craigslist
Re: Pumps on Craigslist
Thanks for the post. I bought the Aermotor pump. Have a picture of my Mama pumping water under a Aermotor windmill and the pump looks like an Aermotor 1940's or so. I have a 602 I'm going to put up on a wooden tower like the one in the picture I have and now I have a pump to go with it. The picture was taken on the farm were I was born in 1945 in Caddo Co.Ok. I have a later picture 1950 that shows the tower. Figure it probably had an old wooden mill on it at one time.
Re: Pumps on Craigslist
Wayne, you now need an Aermotor regulator to complete the outfit.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number.
Re: Pumps on Craigslist
Wayne, glad you got it. Any idea what the pump was that had "Houston Texas" on it?

Re: Pumps on Craigslist
No I've never seen another like that. Maybe we have missed a windmill co in Houston. Since the Ad was on Craigs List and you hear all kinds of bad stuff happening I don't know if I will be going to his house to pick it up to look at the Houston pump. May meet in a Grocery parking lot.
Re: Pumps on Craigslist
Wayne,
I saw an Aermotor windmill pump on Facebook about 2 months back near Frost, TX which was in what I’d consider near perfect condition for an 80+ yr old hand/windmill pump. That fella had it posted for $150 and it looked like the one posted on Craig’s List, but this one was painted black. Had I known your interest, I’d posted it.
Edit - now that I think about it, that Facebook post pre-dates this forum by a few weeks or a month.
