So looking thru the books and with a bit of research I have found many variants of the large Tokheim 600 so here are my questions:
What is the model that has the huge body?
Any idea how many different types of bonnets there are?
I know there are reproduction skins for the standard 600s but does anyone make the skins for the huge one with the "Tokheim" box sticking out.
Are the huge body pumps more or less valuable?

I have one of the big body Tokheims you are talking about. Extremely heavy and this does not bode well for resale. The Cast iron top itself must be close to 40 lbs. No one I know of makes the skins, just take your old ones in and have them flatened. They can make a pattern off of this. If no skins then pictures will do. Lots of parts on these inside and inside the glass. I have some pictures of mine and this might be the one you have.

Craig, thanks, that is a neat looking pump. I figured that their massive size didn't help the value. I like the color scheme you have have, its different and different is what created this hobby (business) so its good thing. Is there a model number that goes with this type or is it simply a variant of the 600. I've had a few Fry 117's and Wayne 60's and I know people like them but I like these; streamlined and nodding toward the future.
