Hello All,
I wanted to post a few pix of the 2 pumps that I recently completed. They are fully restored inside and out using as many original parts as possible.
These were my first restoration and I truly enjoyed the challenge. I have already started the next job - A pair of 60's.
Thanks to all of the oldgasers that helped with parts and advise.....
The frames to these pumps were stolen from the shop I sent them to for sandblasting which delayed the project while I searched for frames and bases.
And now the pumps......................

Cant wait either on the 60s. The are both wide body's. One church key type and one door type. I need some suggestions on the brands. I am thinking Sinclair hc for the door type. Any thoughts on the second ?

I am all for Shell. It would look great. Another one to think about would be Atlantic. They used a lot of 60s and even had porcelain doors for them. There was White Flash, Hi-Arc, Ethyl and Capital.
I likeShell
