Thanks for the great information Matt! You are welcome. The 300 series also had a non-computing V-R. It is a model 383. The faces are flat and go in a face pan like the 371. Here is a 383 face. Notice there are no visible screw heads. That is because it is in a face pan.

This is another version of a non-computing Veeder-Root. This one has the price wheels at the bottom and the total amount wheels are missing. Notice the knobs below the price wheels to change the price. This one is from a Wayne 70. Thanks for all the great information Matt!

Well, better late, than never. Here are a few of mine....
The Mobilgas was in a barn. The black ‘gunk’ on the bottom of the door was from the raccoons going in and out of the hole in the wall next to the pump for the last 50 years or so !!! It’s a nice survivor.

Ok here is one more of mine that I used to have. Although this series of pump (Bennett 300's and 500's) is fairly common, the 391 is not very common. It’s not even on Braden’s list at the top of this thread, that is why I included it here.

We need to convince Braden to extend this an extra week! I am blown away with all the great participation! Gas Pump Ronnie contacted me and asked if I would post for him. He is a living legend out here in Southern California. He is known for creative pump restorations , and creative gas station related film making. This is what he wrote about this 541. This is the Frintier 541 I restored in 1997. It took three hides to cover it and two rattle snake skins for the hose. When the nozzle trigger is pulled the computer and visi gauge spinner spins and it sings Gene Autry’s greatest hits! Contains lead signs says it all.
Wow Ronnie that is totally off the wall cool! Thanks for sharing! Rob

Yes, Ronnie did some great looking creative pumps. Rob, you need to post more of Ronnie's pumps and gas station attendants.

Thought this would be fun to add. It is a custom made fantasy piece. Not sure where it is today, in the photo it appears to be at a show or auction.
