Hi,
This is my first post so hopefully I did it correctly. I am new to the hobby and have recently picked up two Wayne 70's. When I got the second Wayne 70, the guy threw in the pump in the pictures. I only got the sides, doors, top and frame. The frame has a weight on the side that is on a slide. I suspect that it was used to extend / retract the hose? I have a book on pumps but I am looking for a few clues as to where to start looking. Thanks and great site!

Hi AZOutdoors,
Welcome to Oldgas.com Shop Talk. You did a great job on picture posting on your first try.

The wide face openings and straight top doors do make it look like a Tokheim 300.

Wow! That was fast. Thanks for the quick replies. I'm sure you all saved me many hours of picture searching to try to figure it out.

As DB said page 292 of my Gas Pump Identifiction book, one look tells us all it is a Tokheim 300. Here is some information about your pump:

Just sold one like that for 350 cash, the person also bought an old Murry pedal car form me. Good time to sell anything and everything I guess.

Thanks for pointing me to the exact spot in Jack's book (which is awesome by the way). So since it is a 305, are they more rare or valuable than a 300?
