First off, the G&B Greaseervers that I had posted in GPD earlier this week...


And, a couple of cans. Nice Havoline. The other is cooler though. Older than dirt, it reads "Frank Miller -- Established 1858 -- Neatsfoot Clutch Compound -- Frank Miller Co. -- New York USA"

This week's total Petro expenditures: $15

Lucked out on this pump and quartcan at Fred's Bash. Almost ran into the fence while trying to park because my brain stopped functioning when I saw it on the way in.

POSTING FOR ROD / DANCES WITH PUMPS.....

---------------------------------------------------------
Doc,
Here is my contribution to BOTW.  I picked up a BOWSER 565? (stamped on tag) from a local farmer today.  The pump really looks more like a 557 pictured in Jack's book on page 114 as it has ad glasses on the side and a large one above the the computer.  I had been eyeing the pump for several years, but knew it was still being used.  Last week  I drove by it and noticed that the farmer had disconnected the pump and it was lying on the ground.  He had finally retired her and pushed her over.  Probably what bent her top.  The doors had been taken off  some time ago and I was surprised thew hadn't blown away and how straight they were.  As you can see, it was a Sky Chief Texaco pump at one time.
Thanks for posting my pics and all you do for this site, Doc.
Rod

Nice score, Rod!

I can't believe anyone would 'push over' a pump like that...

Glad you're gonna bring her back
