1- TOK 34 2- Wayne 40
Thanks,

You are comparing two totally different pumps. IMO, Not a fair comparison. I like both pumps. Tokheim 34's are harder to find and thus more valuable. Their styling also makes them more desirable.

It's hard to beat the styling of the face bezel on the 40. Speaking of bezels, I'm looking for two of them. I don't have a 34 - yet. I think it's hard to beat the styling of any of the 30's deco pumps. Brady

If I had a choice right now I'd get a 40...because I already have a 34. Seriously both are great pumps. Personally I like the styling of the 34 over the 40. But I want a 40 too!

Paul, I knew you would come in & show your pumps ... Both are killer pumps! Thanks for sharing the photos. I believe you have more TOK-34's coming ... How many pumps can a person have? Hen

I'd hold out for a 40 showcase or a 34 station lighter version. When you find either one that should make your mind up!
