AARON, IF YOU'VE GOT THE WHOLE SIGN THERE BOTH SIDES AND ALL THE ELECTRICAL GUTS, BULBS, BALLASTS, ETC. IT'S MORE THAN LIKELY WORTH $400-600 AND IS PROBABLY DATED SOMEWHERE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE PLASTIC LENSES.....LIKE MINE SAYS "KOLUX 12/73" OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT. GREAT FIND! ANY PLANS ON GETTING IT TO LIGHT UP?

Looks to be an early to mid 90's ranger or mazda,probably worth about $1800-$2300.

Aaron, Plan to keep it for a Loooooong time to get $400 to $600 for it in Wisconsin! Or maybe Doc will let you haul it over to the American Garage the next time he has a sale! I'd say more like $200. Jim

Got a few nice things for my collection. (Pre-Iowa Gas) Here's a neon sign to put above my shelves of vintage auto paint cans. Sure, it's probably from a hardware store, but I'm pretending it's from a body shop. Shhh, don't tell anyone. LOL This Larkin can has nice car graphics on the back. I couldn't resist the mermaid graphics on the conetop can. This book with the cool graphics was a gift from my friend Hubba. Thanks, big guy! This Arco auto paint sign is reverse pait on glass. ------------------ Jim "Oldgas" PottsYour host and moderator[This message has been edited by Oldgas (edited 08-03-2005).]

Hey that wasnt so bad (I think I had a little help, thanx) This is my latest find and my first visible pump. I am planning to use it as a light on my patio. Oh yeah a question or two, is the proper size globe 13 1/2" ? 24 or 26" tall cylinder?

Well, I was going to wait for next week, but I just couldn't. I spent last week on the road, met a bunch of oldgassers, and by the grace of God, found the #1 pump on my wish list, an Erie 50 Cash Recorder. I was in touch with a Gentleman who has an original deco body for this pump, he wouldn't sell it, but did offer to let me use it to make a mold to have some cast, anyone interested? Now, not quite as exciting, but just as rare, is this NOS replacement Visi Glass for a National Simplex, now I just need to find the rest of the pump Good Luck on the Hunt Lance / The Pogo Man).] [This message has been edited by PogoGas.com (edited 08-04-2005).]

Hey Lance nice cylinder you out bid me you dirty rat lol. If you ever want to let it go let me know. I could also pull your leg & say I have what you are looking for that cylinder. But that would be lying

Well, thats 3 for sures on the bodies, and a couple maybes so it looks like we'll have to make some. As far as the Erie goes, I can only say Na-Na-Na-Boo-Boo LOL! I figured I'd only pay a buck more than the other person that wanted that visi glass, man was I suprised when two other people wanted it as bad as me If I find a Simplex with original glass, I'll let you know, I only need one......... ------------------ Good Luck on the HuntLance / The Pogo Man
