If it’s single sided and 17 5/8" wide by 10 1/2" tall it’s for a seloil cabinet. It looks like it’s that based on the different color edges where it was held I place.

Any information and valuation appreciated. Vintage Amsoil Gold Logo wood laquer clock. Just under 2ft x 1ft. Japan marked clock (works)

Researched and located similar clock bases for other brands. Appears to be 1980's or so when compared to other brands found.

Thank you for any help.

I found this lying around in a big pile of signs I bought like 20 years ago. Most of what I bought was pretty easy to track down comps but I can't find anything for this one. Various AI services are telling me a couple hundred dollars but it seems like it's a tough thing to find for sale so I'm not sure if that's accurate.

Hi. New member from Arizona here. My Dad was a Chevy dealer in a very small town in the Midwest. I grew up in the dealership in the 70s and 80s, around cars and car stuff all the time. He had an old gas pump, and it was one of those things that we all loved. I have been looking for a pump for many years now and I came here for help and ideas.

The picture is my Dad’s pump, which is now my brother’s.

MS80s are fun pumps to restore, sometimes the doors are a little warped up and hard to straighten out. I've probably done eight of them. I agree with remove the guts other than computer and eletrical conduits. Rewire all of it using an extension cord is easiest approach. The novelty route is not good, it's better to just have the pump for display IMO. If you want to sell, the novelty part decreases the potential audience and increases cost. The buyer is typically a car guy that wants a pump in his collection, not a gas pump collector guy. Typically wife is involved picking out which pump-colors.

I'd have zero fear doing unusual paint colors, I never do plain red/white anymore on these. You dont want boring, not solid one color, red/black, green/black, yellow/black, silver/green, silver/red, something like that. Not boring, good contrasting colors.

Remove the pump, motor and expanding chamber. Scrap them. Only leave the computer and everything above that. Electric conduit, lights, gas manifold etc. No one has ever asked me for the guts to one of these. Paul
