I need one metal tag/plate for a gulf theme visible pump that I am doing. The tag does not have to be a pump ID tag(if there ever was one).
Thanks,
Dave

...Dave, can you post a pic of what you're looking for? I don't know if I have anything, but it might help someone else find it for you...
Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

Mark,
I am looking for something to replace the missing Fry tag on my 71. I do not like the repo tags. I saw this one on ebay, but "lost" it. lol
Any suggestions ?
Thanks for your help,
Dave
PS. I recently saw a 3 piece 15" Good Gulf globe on Ebay. I have never seen one. Is this a rare bird ?

just about all the Tokheim 850's I've had had that tag on them. I will check to see if I may have saved one.

Hi Dave,
Since you posted this picture, perhaps you know about these types of globes. I've seen the globes that you can split at top and replace the glass, but hadn't seen one like in the pic until yesterday. Friend that just picked up a Wayne 615 that I've posted about on other links has a globe like this one. His glass is broken on one side and both sides are clear, as if the interior paint all got wiped clean. Where can you find original glass...and how do you replace it for that matter? He'd like to have some correct Sinclair glass to put in his. Any ideas? Thanks.
Ken

Hello,
Those 15 inch lenses on metal bodies are held in by a snap ring. Smaller lenses on glass bodies are held in by screws on the sides.
Several people and suppliers sell both the original and repo lenses. They are listed on OLD Gas. Try Ebay also.
Good luck and keep me posted on your hunt.
Dave
