Posted By: TJRAD Tok 39 short with 62 doors (actually 300 doors) - Wed Jan 08 2020 12:31 AM
Picked this up today off Craigslist, new it had the wrong doors, upon research I think the must be from a tok/nat 62. Sound about right?
Now I need hinged 39 short doors, at some point anyways

Those are Tokheim 300 doors. Looks like someone added their own 'hardware store' hinges to the outside. You will have to patch the holes and get some internal hinges from one of the many on-line suppliers or some originals from someone here on OldGas.

And if you decide to keep the doors, please don't restore them. Rocket Gas stuff is hard to find and I bet someone would love to throw them on a pump, the way they are.

Thanks Steve, I’m aware of the work involved, not planning on keeping the doors. thanks for the heads up on the rocket gasoline. Aside from pump dump are there any other good leads for finding the 39 short doors? I assume I will have to post a want to buy thread elsewhere?

Yes, Tom Buckles on here is an excellent source. And I forgot to mention, they could’ve also been lift-off doors, without any hinges. Lift off doors lock at the bottom of the door (in the center).
