Hello everyone!
I wanted to reach out to say hello to all of you. I am new to this whole idea of petrolina but I have hopes to have myself two pumps once i can track down them. I have an interest in not modern pumps but more in line with the 70s through to 1990s. I know most of you collect the really interesting items here but i also hope to utilize these pumps on my farm for fueling equipment.
. Would anybody have some good resources available ( links or websites or books even) that may help guide me into identifying pumps?
Thanks again, hope to meet a good few people here!

Welcome to Oldgas. Best of luck with your pump hunt! Find a copy of the Gas Pump Bible by Jack Sim, that will give you all the info you would need.

Welcome to Oldgas. Best of luck with your pump hunt! Find a copy of the Gas Pump Bible by Jack Sim, that will give you all the info you would need. thank you so much for this information. Believe it or not on the literal cover of this book is the exact pump i am hoping to find. Bottom right 1970. Would you or anyone else who owns this book be able to tell me at what year does it cut off? the descriptions online say 1960s and others say 1970s

Well, in my 2018 edition the back cover says the guide covers all pumps manufactured from 1885 to 1965. However, I do see pumps listed in the guide with manufacture dates as late as the mid 1970's.
