You must have some sort of bionic eyesight; I can't even see the pumps. Let alone identify them.

Well my eyesight is pretty bad because of Diabetes . But you see the American Sign? Below the sign is a white car to the left of the sign. Go farther to your left and you can see the two pumps with the light s above them. Thanks for looking

Maybe DAYTON 1520's. Really hard to tell, but Cad is in street between the 2 stations. American is in foreground, can't tell what brand is across the street & it's either a Cameo or Ford pickup to left of bays.

Looks like a Wayne 420, which is a 400 series with a light hood. Rare pump. I had a pair years ago in red (Texaco Fire Chief) and silver (Texaco Sky Chief) porcelain.

The decals on the pumps look pretty big. Is there an American/Amoco collector on here who might know about the decals? I cannot find any decals for American/Amoco on the net. Any help appreciated. It looks to me there are two pumps each painted different for the grade of gas. The Wayne 505 look the closest so far.

Try Bowser Siameese twins....They have a pump offset on each side. Probably why they are so wide, in the pictures? 585 doubles? Paul www.severngaspumps.com
