They all seem confused! They are probably looking for values!!!
The most valuable commodity I know of is information-Wall Street

They all seem confused! They are probably looking for values!!! ALL antiques there that are For Sale have been brought in from Elsewhere. Last time I was there, there were a few parts pumps around the area but NONE were For Sale. They're comments were "they are part of the draw that people come here to see". IF you ever want to drive a Crooked Road, take Old 66 from Oatman to Kingman.

Got these two signs this past weekend at the Michigan auction that was discussed elsewhere here on Oldgas. Prices were pretty high on a number of items, but I got both of these for about $250, including the buyer's premium......so like always there were some bargains.

I got these last weekend before work. Found them at an antique store accross the street. What makes them special to me is that they are from the Council Bluffs Drive-in which was the first drive-in that I had ever went to and they closed down a few years ago and were torn down so fast that I did not even get a chance to try to get anything from there. Was really neat to be able to find these again and who knows maybe it is the speaker that I used when I was there.

Tokheim--That is such a neat pump! You'll have to keep us posted on it, whatever you do with it! I think I'd just clean it up really nice and display it as is! A little buffing and polishing will make that thing shine! Nice purchase! I'm jealous!

...VERY nice pump, but as it's an older 'restoration' that's been in the weather, I'd redo it...the letters are a lot different on the original and they're gold...very striking...I've seen one of these that was new in the crate, looked just like the one in Jack's book...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Just a few things this week, I have been wanting one of these DX cans, but they are always pricy, not this one... I bought some original add glass, some NOS, here is a mobilgas in my pump, with my repro globe. Some day will get an original globe... I need an original pump plate though!

Tokheim, That's a super cool pump! I'm with Kevin on leaving it as is, with some clean up. You can always restore it, but you can never make it original again. Post some photo's when you get it done no matter which way you go!
