As a kid,I remember sitting in the back seat of our old '47 Plymouth, and watching little round balls,(marbles?) rolling around in the site glass of the gas pump when my Dad bought gas. What type of pump would that have been? Cliff

The one pump that comes to mind is a Bowser GOC cabinet.
They had a glass on the side with orange balls and a spring looking thing to retain the balls.

Lots of pumps have them. So that is like asking what I had for breakfast? Ha Ha. Just kidding around but tough to answer for you. Ted
