I have two for a Bennett as shown, you would need the piece that goes next to the pump though.

Here are a couple of close ups of the top.

Is that center piece rubber? I would say it is a station lighter top but it has been so long sense I seen the two pumps with station lighters. I do not remember the screws. I have been told by one than one person that there were three tops for these pumps, one with no globe, one with globe holder and one for station lighter. I also had some one tell me there were only two tops so maybe some one else can help out here. If you take that cap off and get a globe holder for a Tokheim 39 it will bolt right in place useing those screw holes.

I enlarged the picture on your frame, the light unit on the top of it looks like it is made for a piece of pipe to fit in. If that is the case then it was a station lighter pump originally.

Matt,

Yes that is a rubber insert in the middle of the hole. What I am confused about is how does the pole for the light mount? Does it slide though the rubber grommet? If so, it does not seem to have much support if I am looking at it correctly.

Do you have some close ups of how this light pole would mount?

Thank you for all of your help.

Take care,
Tom

It appears the pole would be threaded and screw right into the light unit mounted on top of your frame. Then the harp and bonnet light fixture would go on top of the pole.

OK, I will get you some photos of the top of the frame. i can see where there are wires coming out for a electrical connection but there is nothing threaded there, that I noticed anyway.

Stay tuned, I will get some photos.

Take care,
Tom

OK, probably not for the purist here and not sure where it is going but I had the up rights powder coated "wagon red" and the shelf's are painted with a metallic charcoal grey color. This will be in no way shape or form in the original form as far as cosmetics go.

This is the beginning of my madness. Stay tuned for more. I am happy that it is going back together now.

Sorry for the ***** phone photos. It does look great in person

Take care,
Tom

By the way, the bottom shelf has rubber insulators on all 4 corners. It looks like there is one on each side of the shelf with a metal plate on both sides as well.

Does anyone know here to get replacements for these? I see they are assembled on the shelf with some type of flared out sleeve???

I am not sure if the original style is available but would consider something close to it.

I can post photos of the metal plate but the rubber insulators are all but gone from age.

Thank you in advance,
Tom

Looks nice so far but the bottom shelf I do not use back.
