Posting pic's is as easy as sending them in an email. There are lots of FREE image resizing on the net.
A lot less painful than learning how to ride a bike as a kid.

Very interesting top, it doesn't show up on any pictures I have of the OK-7 or 7D which I assume it is.

Page 253 of my Gas Pump Identifiation book.

I have an OK-7D Southwest and the jar lid is nothing like the one on your pump. Perhaps that jar lid is an item recycled from another maker/pump and used on yours way back when.

I thought the same untill i looked in jacks gas pump book and it shows this top under southwest and it says very unusual top and pump unknown . It also has a door that slides up and down at the top of the skin. my other pump is an ok 7D and it does not have that. If it was recycled i would still like to know what it was off of so maybe we can figure out what it is and thanks for the reply wayne
