It's been nice & dry all week so of course it rained today....not real steady, just a lil nuisance. Not alot of petro, saw one Bennett 646, $450, needed lots of work & parts, was still there when I left. I bought an old repop Richfield globe for $40 (thought of you Jarvis!!) . Found a couple of pieces for my '55 Bel Air Hdtp (glad I had my cell with me, I'd made an offer on some stainless & then went back later & the guy had gone home!! Great!!! So I got his friend to call him (on my cell!) & we made the deal over the phone. Saw Don & Lynn (gaspumpman) & as he was unpacking this morning some rat stole his Silver Bullets & Mike's Hard Lemonade!!!!! Visited with Tim Hansen (tjhvintage), he was selling stuff like crazy. Thanks for the cold one Tim, since Don dropped the ball!!!!! Next wek should be better, more petro goodies!!!

We WILL have silver bullets for you next week Tom! If I could have caught the rat that was stealing bullets and mikes out of my truck........ I hate thieves!!! Had a good time at the swap meet, bought a 8 foot long mobil products sign and still working on bennett 541. No rust but a fair amout of body damage and missing both sight glasses and face plates and access door. Guy started at 550.00 got him down to 350.00 and will work on him again in the am. maybe 250.00???

Sounds like a good time guys wish I could go. Just cant drive over 1000 miles in a weekend LOL. Yes thieves should have there hands cut off "just a thought" they would think twice before doing it. Have a great time

Went back this morning and offered him 250.00 for the pump and he said if no one else bought it he would do the 250.00 deal. He sold it an hour later for 375.00. the good news is the guy who bought it is going to buy his restoration parts from us. he placed his order today and we will send them out to him later this week. probably just as well we did not get it. It needed a LOT of body work. And I need another projsct to add to the other 30 or 40 pumps we have plans for. Ya right. We had fun at the swap meet and it was great seeing some of our old gas friends. Don & Lynn
