    This has to be my favorite lantern of all. It should be after all the money I spent on it to get it looking like this. LOL!

    Did you have any pictures before it was cleaned up? Very lovely indeed :thumbup: specially since the pump is already attached. Is the pump also the tank cap? If it is, would you know where I can get one (not the whole lamp) just the tank cap/pump.

    Hi Ron,
    This lantern involved the buying of three others to get enough good parts to build just one. All the extra parts have been sent out to other collectors in the same boat as you. You just have to keep your eyes peeled on eBay for them. Or if you're fortunate enough to find one in the wild. The 277 was the same thing. Buy 3 to make 1.

    I went through this ordeal as well. I am the recipient of some of Bob's parts. I might have a fuel cap.
