Ok this is my station lighter that I bought without upper skins around the post. I think these will do just fine. It's obvious it was a Mobil from the red and the outline of the shield so I will redo it back to that. Will post pics when redone in a week or so. Thanks Mr. Computer, in advance, for my shiny new computer for this one:)

Ok I got the original drawing specs of the top from an Oldgasser and scales them off so I think I ended up prettu close. I did make the side pieces so it will look almost exactly like the original. Thanks for the pic. Should the outside of the light be the pump color and inside white? How did they come from the factory?

I am amazed at the talent to rebuild one of those from scratch...

Dick is right they were white inside and out. But, like any pump restore do it your way. White inside is very reflective
@dundign, the tower is sitting on half of a miller meter. Its what I had that would balance it. lol
