I spotted a 36B stationlighter harp and bonnet being used as a gate light in of all places "Bennett" (as in Dick)Colorado. When I stopped and knocked on the door no one was home so we went back today. When I found the lady home before I could say much she invited me in an proceded to talk my ear off at the dining room table. Finally went out and unscrewed it from a fitting in the ground. Dick had suggested to have quite a few 20's at the ready. I did but when this thing was on the ground she said well there it is if you want it. I asked if she would take 20 bucks and she was quite happy! This is just what I have been needing for the 36B stationlighter pump that I had at Front Range Gas and nobody looked! Anyone out there up to making the sheet metal pieces for the transition to the top. Anyway hopefully here are two pics. One as found the other at home. Thanks for taking the time to read all of this. Larry

Dodo,
Look at da YOKE.
The arms go up at an angle, this is a TOKHEIM 36b, the ones that go straight up are the more common ones for light poles.

The one I saw looks like it fit 2inch pipe. It looks in the pic like this one has a smaller pipe but I cannot tell if it also fits the 2inch.

I cant remember the angle of the arms on the one I saw. The shade was a nice red.

I unscrewed the top knob and took off the top piece, inside it was marked REVERE.
I assume these shades are the same on the pole lights?

BTW I have sen several pole lights in yards in my travels, one I managed to get, a red Stongco.

BTW I am still looking for the side access cover for a Stongco red or green type if anyone has one...

The 36B pipe is 1 or 1 1/4. & were sold with WHITE BONNETS [I'm sure you could get other colors, but all I've seen had WHITE].

Well, here is the 36B stationlight tower that I just finished building. Thanks to all who sent me drawings and pictures of what they look like. I have asked alot of people and no one has been able to tell where one is in existence. I would like to have any pictures of finished 36B pumps so I can figure out a color cobination and brand. Thanks again Larry
