Hello all,

I know you guys love soem of these questions so here goes.

I have decided to do a Gilmore Red Lion pump to display outside my garage. I am in MIchigan so I am sure that visible pump brands used in California back in the day were not always shipped from back East. What brand or brands of pump would typically have been used for a Gilmore branded pump?

I don't have a specifc brand preference of pump just thinking that I might was well have it be more or less correct for the era.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

West Coast brands were, BOYLE DAYTON, WAYNE BOYLE DAYTON Division, KEESEE, GODSHALK, TOKHEIM, TOK./NATIONAL, VONDE'S, JOY, BAKERSFIELD, LONG BEACH & several other smaller co.'s lost to history.
BUT Most pump co.'s did ship pumps from Ft. Wayne & Mich. to the West Coast, so any pump could have been used.
HAYES, CLEAR VISION, BOWSER, FRY, G&B etc etc.
