Anybody have an opinion on what a couple of Wilson Gasboy's are worth? These have rust on the bottom of the doors from sitting outside, they are complete and very straight.

My Gas Pump Identifiation book show your pumps on page 348. We valued them (5 years ago) at around $300. I don't believe the value has gone up very much if anything at all. Actually these are commercial units from the mid 1960s and don't attract much attention to collectors.
When I wrote the book I used 6 people to place values on every thing that appeared in my book, them I added them up and devided by 6 to get the value shown in the book. I put the $300 in for these pumps, but personally didn't feel they were worth this much. Just my opinion.

I am no expert but If I remember a few months back there was an auction where a whole mess of pumps like this went for $50.00 a piece. Seems like they were showing up on ebay after that. I am thinking they might have brought a few hundred $$$ from some of the ebay auctions. These are going to the next generation of hot pumps, someday but not today. Just my two cents.
