Photos are not mine, btw; they were posted on the HMVF site some time ago.

power pump.

the power pump is a Canadian Fairbanks-morse # 700 typhoon duplex , leather packed piston pump like the one in the movie.

my unfortunate original shortened pto shaft, he is about 10 "too short

some drawings from a manual Dodge T-222
200 GAL waterbowser

normally he will sell the manual to me, there is a wealth of information.

Hi owen
it is a very good manual with a lot of information, if he does not sell it I will also get it from Rob.
unfortunately there are no sizes mentioned or large of filters or the like.
greetings Guy

I am very happy today at the further combing of the old garage I found the second runnigboard,
she also served as a shelf under an old workbench,
I also found an old I think Canadian work box with 11 nos English bicycle lamps in their original condition still in the box.
I will post some photos on the forum later

I hope I will find original parts, hopefully a filter or a pump
