Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion How Much Should I Pay for This Tokheim Visible?

I am still new at this and wanted to ask some of you guys your opinion on this Tokheim pump. My father in law found this at an old farm. He thinks he wants to buy it and restore it. Obviously it's not all there. What should a pump like this be worth? I realize that's a relative question but need some kind of guideline. Approx. how much $$$ will have to go in to it to make it look good? I can sandblast, paint, weld, etc. Thanks for any help.

Well, let's try this again. Maybe the pics are here now.

looks like a Tokheim 600 series pump.Can't tell which model for sure. New skins are in the $175 to $225 range. Can't see if the pump handle is there? Book value in good condition is $1300. If the cylinder is good figure about $350 to $400 for that and the rest of what is there should be worth
$300 to $400. So an asking price in the $650 to $800 range would be fair. Hopefully you can get it for less.

Wfort39663, thanks for the info. He says the handle is there and it is a "push-pull" handle. He could not try it, it was locked. But he did also say that there was gasoline underneath it. He did not know how long since it has been used.

Look around the buildings, you might find the sheetmetal.
Looks like a 610.
