It is finally done. The pump has been done for awhile but the top needed a lot of work and was left till the end. What do you think of the single color scheme? All the pumps I have restored were always two toned. I thought it was a nice change. By gmctrucker By gmctrucker By gmctrucker

I like the single color paint job, Matt. You do a really nice restoration on your pumps, they look great.

One color on that pump I think looks Great , you did a first class Job on the resto of that Pump and a company Signal has the right contrasting colors to make the Pump really stand out . Again great job

Matt, the pump looks great. I like single color pumps. Where did you get the Signal ethyl decal?

That looks incredible. I work in an automotive service garage and one of our previous employees last name was Tokheim, so I asked him about is family history and he said that is great grampa used to make gas pumps.

Matt,
It looks great and is likely how it may have looked sitting at a Signal station. I have several prints showing monochromatic paint jobs on Signal pumps.

The decals globe and ad glass came from Michael Slama. I do not have to worry about DB. I talked to him before I bid on the top on ebay.
