My first restoration was this Bennett 541 done in Texaco.

Thanks for the kind words Doug. They sure are a labor of love. I have shown some people the pumps "in the rough" and they can't believe that people would pay money for them. But, they sure like them when they are done.

Jim: Nice pumps and accesories. Beautiful nozzle. I have a lubster that was used for Kerosene I will need to add to my pumps. Thanks for the idea.

I know there have been debates about leaving pumps in the rough and just cleaning them up or going the whole 10 yards and maybe "overdoing" the restoration. Either way, I sure like the things people do. As much as I like Texaco with original pump plates and globes. Some day I am gong to do a Polly Pump. Love that Black and green.

Alex,

I'm with you...the next pump I did was a Polly visible, black, green and a little yellow. It's my favorite pump.

Tom, yes I am planning to go to Fred's this Saturday. I went for the fist time last year and really enjoyed it.
