Hey Guys,
I have a freind down the street who just picked up a decent little Tok 300 he wants to restore for himself.....I helped him gut it out last night.
He / we are looking for (1) decent face & the inspection or access door ? thought maybe someone here could help ?
Send me a PM if you happen to have these. Thanks Steve Z

Steve, they used two different computers on that pump. You need to take a picture of it so we know the one you need. I'll go up stairs today and see what I have for parts. Richard

The Tokheim 300 did not have a "acces/inspection" door. Sounds like you have a model 39 with hinged doors.
That is if you are referring to a small door on the side of the pumps.

Tom is right. Is the sight glass on the side of the pump or in the face? I checked upstairs and I don't have any faces left. Richard

Thanks guys, tag says 300, sightglass on the side, I'll have to look at it closer but it looked like it had a panel missing down towards the bottom ?? I'll get some pics and hopefully that will clear things up. Z

Never seen a 300 with an inspection door on the bottom. Learn something need every day. The computer has been upgraded from a six wheel to an eight wheel. Alot of times they just cut the face so everything whould show. Sorry cann't help you with parts. Richard

Tokheim 300. I have not seen a 300 with an electrical inspection cover before. I'm guessing someone very lazy cut that out. Because, it makes no sense to have that when the doors open easily with keyed locks.

Just weld a patch in and restore it. Not really a big deal? Paul www.severngaspumps.com

The eight wheel computer may be original. The gas pump book lists a High Speed pump with an eight wheel computer. I have a tall 39 High Speed pump with the original porcelain faces.

Years ago I bought a Tokheim 300 from a concrete plant. It was set up with a four wheel computer to pump diesel, as the mixers used large amounts of fuel. The faces were perfect porcelain with the correct cutouts....not a chopped set as you would have guessed. Restored to Mowhawk and shipped to Canada......should be a picture on my site under For Sale Pumps.....scroll down and look at the Sold pumps. Paul www.severngaspumps.com

Thanks for the wealth of info on the pump guys, the other side has a face & I'll get a better pic that may clear things up a little ? as far as the cut out, it didn't even occur to me that someone would have done that, sure did a nice job as it really looks original....but your right Dave not sure why with opening doors ? have to look a little closer maybe they ran external conduit to this access point through the panel ? easy fix either way I guess. Thanks again for the input & checking for parts.....Ryan I'll point him to your site. So much for a nice easy resto ! hahaha lol Steve Z
