This Crane "All American" kitchen sink faucet was a project I started a few years ago.
New stem assemblies have been installed and most of the trim parts have been re-plated chrome.
The original plastic-like faucet cover/shroud is in original condition but is usable.
I was able to save the original connective parts to mount the faucet to the A-American sink,
small cast-iron parts in the box.
Handles look like they are replacement ones from the 1960's.
The sprayer piston in the main faucet-body is missing.
Spout is threaded for an aereator...cant see that from the photos.
7/28...Someone asked if there are any other parts? No...Just what is in the photos.
7/28 Someone asked if I had a photo of the sink this faucet was mounted on...see last 3 photos.
7/30 Someone asked about the sprayer?
This faucet originally was supplied with a sprayer assembly. Faucet will work fine without the assembly.
Some people call the part a “sprayer-diverter” basically a sort of piston that redirects the water from the spout to the sprayer. I would watch the “crane vintage faucet parts” here on ebay and elsewhere. Chances are a repair kit will show up at some point as that part had an operating lifetime and replacement was necessary from time to time.
7/31 Interesting someone mentioned they had the same cover/shroud on the same faucet and they had it painted to match the same silvery looking original finish....It didn't even occur to me that the plastic-like material could be painted or refinished.
8/1 Someone asked if the two ports on the bottom side of the faucet body are tapped (threads) yes, one is 1/4" and one is 1/8" threaded. |

Check "dea bathroom machineries" for replacement cover/shroud, sometimes they have them
other times not available.
Lately I was thinking maybe a 3-D printer to replicate the shroud? Don't know if that is possible.
Lost interest and trying to free up work space.
