hi guys... finally had some sunshine out today and wanted to give the garage a clean-up... Us being in the middle of winter its hard to get the chance.. I quickly took a pic of some of my recent restored pumps before they went back in.
Pumps are (from the left to right): *Wayne 605 in Golden Fleece (local Australian branding)
*Elrmatic in Mobilgas Special (local Australian manufactured pump)
*Gilbarco Salesmaker 1004 in Harley Davidson themed.
now back in the garage and under the bed sheets - some dark clouds are rolling in again .. lol. ..
cheers
Martin

Yes but Peggy is about to jump over him. Nice set of pumps and great visuals for sure. Martin, me thinks you are not cold tolerant-your winter's day in Melbourne is a nice summer's day up in most of Canada.

Are you saying that your pulling the wool over our eyes? Do you feel kinda sheepish about your work? Do yellow sheep have more Baas than black sheep? I could go on for awhile but I'll just stop and say, Great Job!!

Dav thanks for that... .. im not a professional restorer, no background in bodywork, painting, chromeplating etc... just learnt the stuff along the way and I can see a big difference between the first ever pump I restored (about 5 yrs ago now) till the H.Davidson pump just finished a fortnight ago... never stop learning.. cheers & that for the kind words.

Heya Martin, They do look great and all the other was just silly puns. I've never seen a sheep for a globe before and that is great to see! Good inspiration for some puns too! I like that those are 60s era pumps. I almost picked one up just like the Harley D. pump and it was still in ESSO ad glasses.
