Do any of you guys know if the MobilFuel Diesel Globes ever got Reproduced?
I am on the hunt for one for my next pump and could use some help on what to look for.
Thanks

Not that I am aware of anyway. You should be able to find an original for under 500 if you look hard enough. I don't know if that is out of the budget or not, but reletively inexpensive when it comes to globes. Check with Seth at Vic's Place and I am sure he will know if it was repoped or not.

I agree with Roger......don't think it's been reproduced.

I have been looking for a single lens for quite some time now, have never seen a lens for under $600.

It has been couple moths, but a complete 13.5" MobilFuel Diesel on Capco sold for $187.00
Then a set of 15" Lens only showed up but the reserve was not met. I forget the exact price,the bidding stopped. $200-$215?
Does anyone have a few to show pic's of??

600 for a single lens is way out of line in today's market. Just an opinion, but 500 for a complete, mint globe should be tops.

I am looking for a 15" mobilfuel diesel with the big pegasus, NOT the newer logo 13-1/2". Scott wants $600. if he had one, He values the complete globe at 1100. If I could find one lens for $250. I will buy 3, at least. Rick
