Sometimes it pays to be patent! I original found this pump from an oil jobber in North Dakota back in 87 or 88 it was in nice original condition minus the glass but all the ID tags and pieces where there! Sold it to a collector back in 90 who had it restored and always wish I never sold it but guess what he called and I just bought it back!

Just a hint to some of you new guys this is how I found this pump.... your local oil jobber will know where every gas pump is in a 75 mile radius because they delived fuel to them....so even today it might be worth a try as I still know of some rare pumps on farms that are not for sale.......yet
