It’s the day after Christmas, my wife’s really mad I wish I could blame her, I’ve been really bad. The guests are all gone and the house is a mess Decorations are up and the tree is still dressed. There’s ribbon and wrapping and bows all untied There laundry and dishes and gifts piled high. I’ll sleep on the sofa, I really don’t mind I tried to be helpful, I’ve tried to be kind. I’m begging, I’m pleading she just has to see I’m really not good at hiding my glee. It’s the day after Christmas I’m really a chump I spent the whole day out finding a pump! Bowser 575 and ain’t she a chocolate coated beauty! Actually my wife is okay, she even consented to a pump hunting journey. That’s my almost 13 year old son Byron holding up the pump. Below is the Chevron decal under the coat of chocolate. Pump had a white face with seafoam green sides under that (Flying A ?) Oh yeah, I got a ping pong table for Christmas. (Couple of nice Petro related books too). [This message has been edited by the poor mans museum (edited 12-26-2004).]

Nice find Curt! IMHO the green and off White is the original colors of the Chevron Supreme between 1945-55. The decal without the hallmarks also indicate the same time period. Here are the paint codes from PCM's guide to gas pump restoration: Sherwin-Williams Chevron Green: 50147, Chevron Cream: 48780. have a great day! Claes

Hey Claes, thanks for the color specs. Never knew Chevron used green. May have to redo this one in Chevron.
As for the rest of you characters, you're right, I'm addicted. My limit is now $100.00, this pump cost me fifty bucks! Can't pass up a cheap date.

Nice pump for 50 bucks! I will give 100.00 for it, just think that would be a 50.00 profit and your next date would be free.

Yes, it was a farn pump. The guy I got it from dragged it home from the farm where it was used to his property nearby (the owners gave it to him). This is out in Huasna, California which is about 15 miles south east of the towns of Arroyo Grande and Pismo Beach along the coast. That's why the pump has a nice suntan!

Got these from eBay sellers. This Lucas Auto Paint sign is dirty but is in great shape. Now I'm looking for an auto paint can to go with this. This DuPont sign isn't specifically auto paint, but it has porcelain so thick, the letters look embossed. Thanks to Ron Bettin for the tip pointing me to this one. This NOS Zephyr gas attendant hat cover now has me looking for a hat to put it on.

Late post of an earlier buy. LaCrosse #100 soda machine. works. & a nice 80. i see the top was changed on the pump at one time & someone snagged the pump plates. the 80 is nice. nicer than pic shows. $150.00 for the pair delivered! yaaaaaaaa! (i knocked them both out of the frozen ground & wheeled them up to the back of the shop getting them ready for a trip to storage with the rest of my junk!) picture retake & i added a couple of oil cans that were pretty good when i found them YEARS AGO. i set them on a shelf out behind the shop & are now shot eaten by Minnesota weather.
