I just wanted to thank everyone in Old Gas Land...I just finished my first pump, a Gilbarco 996, a Christmas gift for my father. I converted it to a display case for practical purposes (he's old school...everything needs a purpose). Without this site and the expertise of the members, I never would have been able to complete it. As it was, I tightened the last bolt at 9:30 Christmas eve to get to my parents by 10! Thanks to Scott (my Christmas savior) and all of you. Best wishes for healthy & happy New Year to all.
