show your OLD GAS PUMPS!

[colt zantop]

hi everyone, was hoping a few of you guys had some old gas pumps (restored or unrestored) to show off. Ive always liked these and hope to do one myself some day.

Don't personally have any, but you will see a few here from the Barrie (Ontario) Fall Meet:

Yeah more pictures please. I have been looking at getting an old pump and restoring it for years. The prices are very high for the restored ones and rediculous for the un-restored ones. I want to build a non-functioning replica from scratch. Pictures here or references to where I could locate publications dealing with this would be helpful.

Do a google search on 'petroliana' and you'll find enough gas pump pictures to last you all day.

I don't have one, but I'm always looking. Would love to get one for my garage. Been watching this one on ebay, but a bit pricey

Picked this one up years ago for free. Sandblasted and Ospho'd it and bought
new trim and rubber. Since then its sat in the shop for 10 yrs. waiting for me to decide on a color scheme... I probably need to finish it. Gilbarco 97 I believe.

Did you do the restoration of the Tokheim 39 Gulf gas pump? I have a 1954 39A I would like to restore to the Gulf colors like yours. What year pump is yours? Do you know if those colors would be correct on mine?

I didn't do the restoration on it. It was a birthday present from my wife a few years back. As far as the year, I'll have to look at it to see if it is on the plate. I was thinking it was a '58 but that may be the AO Smith pump.

Heres my Mobil pump I restored several years ago. This photo was last years Christmas card for us. I have 4 more in the garage waiting to be restored, someday...

Heres a couple of interesting links.

I keep tossing around the idea of making a line of car air fresheners modeled after vintage gas pumps? Any thoughts?

I'd be afraid of restoring one and then it getting filthy (overspray/serious dust) out in my garage.
