What type of Visible pumps were used at Gilmore stations? Makers and models? I'm curious because in the next few years I'd like to own a Visible and do a Gilmore type "rustoration".

You see a lot of BD/Wayne Cut 83s and Tokheim 620s that were used on the west coast.

Find a photograph you want to copy, different years have different pumps & Most GILMORE Stations were Independently owned, some had many brands of gasoline.

If anyone had photo's of a Gilmore station better than the ones I see on Google feel free to post. Or if you'd rather them stay private due to them getting sold online please pm them to me.

That is the remodeled Victor Anderson station, when it was located at Beverly and Fairfax, in Los Angeles, on the Gilmore property side (Gilmore Island). The structure was later moved to the entrance of the Farmer's Market, at Third and Fairfax.

Here's how it look originally, before the remodel...

I collect porcelain telephone flanges. Interesting, to see the telephone flange on the gas station.

Don't recall seeing one on a gas station before.
