Tom--

Welcome.

There is not a 12 step program for petro collectors...run while you still have a chance befroe you ruin yourself financially!! Just kidding.

Post a note here on oldgas.com under items wanted and get the stuff you need. I'm sure you can find an original top. Don't know about the visi-guage. I think repros are available.

My 36 is missing the top too. DB must have been to Idaho also.

36 tops are hard to come by and there were three kinds. metal, metal with ad glass and glass. I would like one. Mine has a glass top but it is busted up pretty good. This is what I started with. Then I repaired it. Thought I was all done then it started cracking again. You can see the new cracks in the finished pic.

The cracks are hard to see in the posted picture. Look at the top on the visi side.

Isn't the ad glass top for a #36, a modified #36-B top?
Mine was cut & had small aluminum stairstep covers to hide the cut and a base to make it fit the #36 top casting.

Matt, not to high jack the post, but is that a Beeline pump behind the 36. I would love to see a pic of that. I like the less common brands and that's one I never see.

Hi Kyle, the pump is not restored to Beeline. It just has a globe and decal with masking tape holding the decal on. I have a Bennett 966 that I was going to do in Beeline but decided to sell the pump. I might possibly sell the globe also. The pump was done in Chevrolet service when I bought it and will be redoing it to General Ethyl.

Just bought 36b at a gas bash, need the metal frame part that goes around the face area. Mine has small missing damaged piece.

You have to remove the pump door. The face bezel is held on by machine screws from the back side.
