I recently purchased a wayne 60 wide body that needs restoration and has a couple of questions.

1. The top is solid woth no hole for a globe, is that more rare?

2. Does anyone have a poc of a wayne 60 in a sinclair dino scheme?

3. Where would I be able to find info or detailed pics of a wayne 60 to see what nuts and bolts were used on the pump and how its out together with the different parts?

Thanks guys

#1 not rarer than other versions, more common IMO
#2 Google images "wayne 60 sinclair"
#3 order a Parts breakdown/instruction manual from Ron Scobie for $4 (www.gaspump.com)

There seems to be a great deal of differences when it comes to the Wayne 60. All of you, please look at this section of my website and tell me if anything is incorrect.

http://petrolianacollectibles.com/wayne%2060.htm

I should apologize about my website. Almost 20 years ago I purchased the Microsoft program "FRONT PAGE." This program allowed me to create a website without learning HTML. I created a monster, my site has over 12,000 images, prices for all the ECO parts we sell, Etc.... But I have recently heard from Go Daddy, that MS does no longer support Front Page. I cannot even change a single price of anything, nor correct any information I have posted about a particular gas pump, nothing. Go Daddy charges me $100+ per year to allow the site to continue, but I cannot change anything.

Thanks for the info. Does the value change if you make a wayne 60 into a 866 with the clockface? Or value change if you make it a display pump?

Thanks

In my opinion, by customizing the unit to one of the above options you decrease the value. If you plan to keep it, them by all means do as you like. If you are going to flip it, a smart buyer will know it has been tampered with which might make it very difficult to sell? Paul www.severngaspumps.com

IMO, unless you find an original computer unit and other parts required to make the pump an 866, you are decreasing the value of the pump.

Also, I always agree with everyone who says it's your pump, do what you want to it if it's for your enjoyment, but a Wayne 60 with Dino graphics always makes me cringe since Dino graphics and globes are not the same vintage of the pump. This is just me, but I'm always for doing things period correct.

Is there a reason why some pumps have twist fastners or screws and hinges for the front door?

Does anyone have any restoration or inside pocs of the wayne 60?

Thanks
