Thanks Guys. Unfortunately I had to sell that one and the WhiteRose one too, needed money at the time,sniff, but, it worked out good as the person I sold them to is now a good friend and he has an awsome car collection in Grande Prairie Alberta, and he is filling is nooks and crannies with gas items. Check out his site: www.mervsclassiccars.com he has a picture of both the pumps on display. Best of all, he wants me to do more pumps for him, so maybe that's what I'll do with a couple of the new ones. Also from that, another couple from Grande Prairie wanted a pump too, so I restored and sold them a Bennett 756 and restored their Wayne 100 for them too, and also formed a great friendship with them as well. What a great hobby huh? I will post some pics of those 2 pumps later. Supper time I guess, talk to you guys later.

Greatlooking pump Ken!!! You do nice work!! Greg

This is my Bennett 1066 that's in my basement now. This one is my favorite, I seem to like these ones. I'd like to get another to do a mate in B/A Super 88 in. I guess everyone can tell by now that B/A is my favorite company. Check out Alex Colwell's B/A site if you haven't already: www.britishamericanoil.ca

Hi Guys and Gals. Thanks again for the comments. I've got more to show. Well, I'm not sure, but it was either Burton Cummings or Randy Bachman, I'm sure Dodo can set us straight on that.

A comment on the other post tk tracy kirtsinger from dana ( formerly bruno) saskatchewan. If you are going to collect buy pumps in saskatchewan you will hear this name. I do not even want to count the number of times that I have followed up on leads that he was there many years before me. You will hear sold it to some guy named tracy a lot in your area. Dont get me wrong tracy is a great guy and has always been good to me

Lance and I got our first (and my only) wayne 60s from him at the same time!! Lance said Later did you really think I was going to let you get one before Me??...LOL.

I eventually dealt it off to Lance. I think of All our collecting adventures that still was one of the most memorable!! I raced home from the meet point, we threw off the pumps at the shop. Opened the door, grabbed my tickets, ran over to the nearby stadium to se Alice Cooper! Left the concert later, got pulled over..had to blow in a little tube..passed..Whew!!

I think the reason they made me blow was The beer bottle Tracy left laying on the trans hump from that afternoon as we loaded the pumps!! No dome light. no see it!!


Thanks for those Wayne 60,s!!

Hey Ward. That's the guy I was thinking about. Yup, I've heard alot about him too. I'd like to go see his collection sometime though. I don't know why I was thinking of D'arcy though?? My bro'-in-law does know him too.
Thanks on the comments on the clock, it is pretty neat huh? It doesn't keep perfect time and it does have a crack that someone repaired, but I can live with that being it's quite rare and it's a double bubble clock. I have only seen two, Wes Hague down east had one he sold for around $1500.00 or so, and Ralph Falvo has one in his collection. I was lucky and got this one off ebay for a really good price. Could be because of the crack? It's really not that noticeable. Oh yeah, I am a bodyman/painter, and we too, use PPG Global at our shop. Myself, I have a Devilbiss "Plus" Tom Pruitt "Aces Wild" edition gun, I like it alot. For my own projects, I use Omni primer and clears to keep costs down,and it works great, the clear has a great shine to it.
The little fridge on the other post isn't mine Ward. I can do real well with 2-tones, etc. with simple lines, but when it comes to anything custom work, I can hardly draw a decent stick-man. A co-worker of mine did that. He's a very talented young man, and a good bodyman too. Talk to ya later.
