Well I bought my first pump, a 1950 Tokheim 39. I’m very happy with it, it is very straight and only has a few spots of minor surface rust.

My goal is to do a 100% rebuild to functioning condition. I have restored a few cars and power generators, so I’m not new to restoration work, just new to pumps.

The original paint color is red, so I would like to restore it to a brand that would have used red pumps in southern Missouri. Any suggestions?

I will update when I get it home and take it apart. Looking forward to learning about these pumps!

Ben
