Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Petroliana Value Questions Discussion and Value of 2 Hays Pumps Clock $ Visib

I don't have very good pictures of either pump. I will be taking better pictures and adding them. The first pump is a Hays Clock Face. I believe it is an AX 600 as picture in Jack's illustrated guide to gas pumps. The value listed there is 3500, my question is, do I have the pump identified correctly? Has the value changed much one way or the other since the book was printed?

The second pump is also a Hays also, I believe it is the 10 gallon visible 1923 listed in Jack's book at $1900. I should have taken a picture of the whole pump and will but all I have now is the tag with the serial number. Can anyone confirm via the serial number that I have identified correctly? Also I am very curious as to how this pump operated for there is no hole in any of the sides for a pump alarm. I'll try to get better pictures of both pumps posted.

Hays Clock Face


Hays Visible Tag

A few more pictures of the Hays visible pump. It doesn't look to me like it ever had rods between the top and bottom of the glass mount. That probably is a clue to help identify the model?

A few more pictures hopefully to help identify the Hays visible

Clockface is an AX-600C, cash computer pump. The visible is simply known as a "Hays" visible without a number designation. They did not use threaded rods to hold the cylinder in place, and instead used a threaded nut on top of the center pipe to hold the cylinder in place. There should be a cast iron top for it that simply "sat in place" with nothing but gravity holding it in place!
