I'm sure all of you at Iowa gas saw this pump. It has to be the biggest pump I've ever seen. Nobody seemd to know much about it. Maybe Jack can share some information about it.

Kyle did buy it, and was tickeled pink to pay $400 for it. Pre visible, double 10 gal w/ 2 pump mech. [1 missing]. Inside has 2 steel cylinders with a sight glass the length of each cylinder.There is another smaller cylinder to the left of large cylinder w/ another sight glass [never did figure out what it was for]. VERY RARE to find in this condition.
I talked to another collector that HAD one.
Was glad to meet you Tim. Sorry you were not home when I came thru your area. db

Butler made two versions of this pump. One was referred to as the "Butler Single for Curb Installation". You could get it "Air-Lift" or "Motor Driven". The second one was the "Butler Double for Drive-In Stations". You could get it with the air lift or motor driven also. This pump was made in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Ron Scobie

I got one of those pumps! I have had mine for a year and a half now and got it 30 miles from my house off a farm. Really cool pump!
