Dick,
Thanks for the correction. I have a few things left from my gas and oil collection that I am trying to get rid of and I was unsure about this item. Although most of these items were obtained about 20 or more years ago, if I should ever be wrong about the originality or application of an item, please let me know and I will correct it. Is this computer face only correct for the Wayne 70?

Tom

The Wayne 60's normally came with an aluminum face but there were many of them that were changed out as they were used. The Wayne 60 had a side totalizer that you read thru the little inspection door, where the Wayne 70 had the totalizer in the face on one end of the computer. When they wore out, many of the 60's were switched over to Wayne 70 computers since they were completely interchangeable. A lot of the face plates were changed over to the porcelain plates also since they too are interchangeable.
If you wanted to be EXACTLY correct on a Wayne 60, you would use the side totalizer computer and aluminum face plates but I like the porcelain plates better, especially when you find real nice ones. I'm not totally sure that there weren't some 60's that came from the factory with porcelain plates on them? They tended to use whatever was available.
