This "Ditzler Paint Shop" sign has some paint loss, but it's the only one like it I've seen in many years of looking. I'm extremely happy to get it. It is a 1950s logo. Double side painted tin.

"Buick Engineer Approved Kar-Kleen" paper label can. I already have Buick Kar-Kleen in a plastic bottle in my Buick memorabilia collection.

That's a nice duo for a guy who spent 37 years in a Buick dealer body shop.

Few new OK signs, neon pegasus, NOS Walker muffler display rack, plymouth and desoto banners, and 2 Houston Gas signs. Upgraded my Houston sign I had.

looks like a tough day or week.

Here is my BOTW

I picked these up at the West Coast Gas Bash exept for the Silver Shell from that I got from Pogo.

These are some things I bought and never took pictures to post so I did them today.

A few new qts for the collection. The Pacelene can is one of my favorites from the Pacific Oil Co. Has anyone seen another or does anyone have one in their collection?

This was still in the original packing.

My haul...
Yes I bought a 5HP Firestone boat motor... I love the vintage look and simple graphics.

first pump, that I actually plan on keeping! I know it is a bennett, but what version? I'm gonna need gaskets and some other various bits soon.

I believe your pump is a Bennett 966.

Wow Matt ABSOLUTELY AMAZING HAUL ,3 of them boogers now huh ,you & Rick B. have to have em all by now ,very cool .....very cool!

Old Gas member "KOOLMOTOR" had these 2 Wayne 40's posted last week and was advertising that he had dropped the price! When I checked it out, the price was very reasonable and he was located a short 80 miles away! Well, I already had a Wayne 40 but the temptation was too much! I sent off an email and ended up making the deal!
I met with George last week to pick the pumps up and discovered we had a "BIG" problem! The pumps were located in an upstairs bedroom on the second story of his early 1900's house! Now, George has this old house fixed up beautifully but if you know anything about old houses, then you'll know that the staircases are very narrow and extremely steep!
How in the heck were 2 Old Gassers going to get those pumps to the lower level??? ( They had been assembled up there) We hopped in Georges truck and began to drive around his home town looking for help. Our first stop was the high school football field but practice was still in session and would probably continue for some time. Next stop was a body shop where they were working on Georges daughters car and there were usually a couple of workers around. BINGO! Two strong guys came right over and hand carried those big suckers down the stairs for us!
We carefully wrapped them up in blankets and laid them down in my truck and I was headed for home with the two pumps but a lot lighter in the cashola department!
These 2 pumps were very carefully restored and the worksmanship is terriffic! As good as any paint job that I've ever seen! George also had some of the parts chrome plated and its a great touch to a very quality job!
I'm elated to be able to own these 2 pumps and I have plans for a Cities Service pump display with clover globes on top! I'll do more pictures when I get that accomplished. THANKS GEORGE!!

A Wayne sign i picked up off old~gas! Sweet score Kevin!

Thanks diesel. Doesnt happen often enough for me, but once a year is about all I can afford on something like this.

Here are some of my BOTW (sorry about the bad pictures, a small college dorm room isn't the best picture taking studio or storage facility)
