My Filling station has been completed on the out side. The inside is bulging at the seams, but there is always room for more. Les

Awesome collection. I especially like the lighted canopy signs. I see you do not have a GULF one though. If you are interested, I have a couple of Gulf's for sale. I have a 36" square and several size Gulf round. Feel free to contact me if you have any interest.

Hi,The pickup is a 31 Model A . The visible pump is a 1928 Boyle Dayton. If you gan see just to the left of the pump there is a quarter barrel which I have plumbed to where I can pump gas ( red prestone) in to the cylinder,then hose it back,or use the drain back valve. The two electrics are Tokhiem 300s. The inside of the filling station are colectables. Trying to stay with the filling station theme, but some farm items have made there way in. Les

I found the glass cylinder,and china hat within 20 miles from home. They were from a twin to mine. The pump is very heavy indeed, as some of you know.The rest of the pump came from a farmer friend's field at Lakeview,Or. I had it for about 30 years.The globe wasn't on when the picture was taken. If I ever have a chance to make it to Walla Walla,Wa to see gators globes,I probably won't quit until I find an original. Les
