I restored this old National Oil Well Pumping Unit and added a United 2 HP throttlegoverned (generically called a hitandmiss) engine.


Obtained from an old oil field near Petrolia, Texas, this small pumping unit was the perfect size for an animated piece of yard art! It was very worn and required making new bearings and lots of cleaning.
