I came along in the summer and finally registered October 1st. I became interested in acquiring a gas pump to compliment my cars and the few other vintage items I have. I’m not a collector, picker, or trader of Petroliana. I just wanted a piece to go with my cars. I do have a few repro tin signs hanging on a wall in my garage to compliment my few old license plates, vintage padlock, car show wall plaques, and a tiny flip flop that belonged to my baby from a few summers ago.
I purchased a pump that needed parts, and oldgas.com connected me with people that could help me. Thank you to those that have helped, I appreciate that. I then thought it might be good to document my restoration on the “showcase” forum as it would encourage experienced restorers to offer advice and direction, and newbie’s to petroliana like me to learn from trial and error. I’ve enjoyed posting my progress on the pump.
As a photographer, I’ve posted a few petroliana related photos I’ve taken. Again, I thought people might be interested in seeing some of these images.
If I’m not following the rules, someone tell me. Send me a PM or post it. I want my posts to be of value to readers here.
Thanks to those that manage the site.
