Vintage Perko Bronze Manual Bilge Pump on 2040-parts.com
Tracys Landing, Maryland, United States
This was on a 1936 Kings Cruiser so is likely of that era and has been stored since 70s.
Barrel is 18" so stroke is about 16", looks like the barrel is 2 1/2" ID. The threads are indented at a couple of places at the tip of the barrel top but with some care it threaded on. Also has about a 1" longitudinal crack in the barrel near the top that oddly doesn't go into the threads, see pics - if soldered on the inside it would not show and would not interfere with the piston. 1.5" female discharge, 1.25" male intake threads. Needs foot valve leather replaced but the flapper is with the unit, see pic. Don't know about the piston seal but likely it needs replacing too. No dents etc in the barrel except as described. 26.5" from top of handle. I believe it is all bronze or brass but the barrel may be copper. With some work it would make a lovely pump for a period boat! Better in your boat than my garage! |

Wed, 02 Apr 2014Sometimes you just get lucky. In this case, it's you, the Autoweek reader who's doing the lucky-getting. You see, usually, when some weenie dings his flat-black Aventador, the most you can hope for is a photo or two of the carbon-intensive carnage.
Mercedes S63 and S65 AMG debut at Shanghai
Mon, 20 Apr 2009Mercedes revealed the S63 and S65 AMG (pictured) at the Shanghai Motor Show today In yet another demonstration of how important emerging car markets are to premium car makers, Mercedes has chosen to unveil its top two S Class models – the Mercedes S63 AMG and the Mercedes S65 AMG - at the Shanghai Motor Show today. These range-topping S Class Mercedes get the same updates as the lesser siblings (and the Hybrid S400) we told you about a week ago. But this isn’t a new model – just a mid-cycle refresh of the S Class in general.
Volvo ReCharge Concept
Thu, 13 Sep 2007By Ben Barry Motor Shows 13 September 2007 12:38 A Volvo hybrid? Let me guess, it appeases the greens but fails to deliver in the real-world The typical hybrid this is not. Instead of having an electric motor that only works at very low speeds before a regular engine cuts in, this C30 – dubbed ReCharge Concept – can be driven on electric-only power for 62 miles which is adequate for most commutes.
