Have a question on this Bowser twin visible and have never seen these top caps or top sheetmetal. Also the inside gallon markers are that of wayne or at least look like it. Can anyone tell, as I have seen numerous pictures and none look like this Bowser. Can't get the pictures sent to me resized and tried to do it with the other thing here. Thanks

Thanks Kevin, note the difference in the gallon markers and the tops are that of smooth rounded as different than the ones seen on here and on Google for Twin canadian Bowsers. There is a single besides this one with the correct inside markers. Maybe some of the canadian collectors on here can weigh in on their thoughts. Thanks Craig

Just received a phone call from the owner chastising me for putting this on the internet as he called it and asking questions. That is the reason we have this forum I thought to ask and find out if in fact things are real, partially real, or just fake. Ones privacy is one thing, but It is advertised in Petroleum Collectables monthly thus putting it out for everyone to ask and see. If you are offering something for sale then lets see what you have and that way we can make a judgement or have someone with more knowledge help in making that judgement.

I'm of the opinion that once an item is offered for sale in a public venue such as Petroleum Collectables. Public scrutiny/discussion from potential buyers or people in general can be expected.
Seller has no reason to be offended. If the seller is not aware of any shortcomings or details that were over looked during the restoration and thus is unable to state that. Then, these sort of discussions could reveal beneficial information for them as well.
No one should be offended by an interested party exercising due diligence.

As someone who knows little about pumps I would welcome all info possible before making a purchase. I'm not a buyer but would sure be upset if my new purchase didn't pass for what it was advertised as.
