Another Craigslist find. I picked this one up today about 20 miles from my house for $175.00. No rust out and only one small dent on the other door. I do need both sight glasses if anyone can help me with that.

That is a great pump, well made and very easy to restore. Nice score. Got the sight glasses, $50 a pair shipped. Let me know if I can help, Tom.

Thanks a million guys. I need 2 sight glasses, at least one face plate, "ERIE" label for door, and 2 door hinges. With these items i will be all set. Please let me know how much for these items and your addresses. Yes, it is all original and it came from a Cities Service Station in the town from where i got it. When it was removed from the station it was placed on a concrete pedestal hooked to an above ground tank. That is where i removed it from so the sheetmetal is 98% perfect. I am very happy with this find and i cannot wait to start the restoration. I will post pics as i go along. Thanks, Zack

Zack--It would look really nice restored to Cities Service colors! Lots better than plain old "Texaco" or something like that! LOL

I agree, I am just too partial to TEXACO i guess, LOL. I spent most of my youth working at my dad's Texaco station. Most of what i have is all Texaco but Cities Service would look great, i need to give it some thought.

If you look very closely, it appears to say "mile master" or am I just seeing things? I thought that "mile master" was used by Marathon? Did Marathon buy Cities Service or something?
Either way, nice find and a good buy!
