Sweet, it's nice to see a different version of a Wilshire Oil Co. pump other than Polly.

I actually do not know the paint codes. I had the paint store do color match off the globe for the two greens. The off white is Creme Brule a Ford color.

I did Wilshire Economy because the pump was originally a Wilshire Aviation pump when it was in use. You could still make out the old decal. I wanted a globe though and no one had Wilshire Aviation so Wilshire Economy was the closest match. This pump restoration had no expense spared. Everything is chromed, polished brass, stainless bolts and screws. Base and misc items powder coated, paint is base coat clear coat painted at Guaranty Chevrolet in Santa Ana. It has one original purple tinted sight glass (anyone have another they want to part with?). It really is flawless. I will post a pic of it in the living room tomorrow. Thats 3 pumps, a lubester and a Window Wash Station in my living room. Any idea why I am single? Not sure what is next. I need to get Farmer to restore one of his A38s or 36B's (or just sell me one so I can do it).

Did that pump originally have a globe holder mount on top? Since it was a aviation pump so the wings could clear.
