...I'd keep the 'guts' in this one...so many 'showcase' Wayne 60's ain't...nice find...

Nice pump! I agree - I'd clean up the "guts" and put them right back in.

What!! Leave the guts in for identification?? There are other ways to tell! The light manifold is the easiest way and its very unique to the showcase pump! It actually has another outlet on the back of the manifold for a pipe to come downwards to just above the showcase area! There are actually 2 lights that come down to the showcase area and its IMPOSSIBLE to do with a regular Wayne 60 light manifold without making a mess out of it! Unless you have some pristine internals and actually intend to use the pump one day, the extra weight is ridiculous!
You can also tell by the way the gas discharge pipe is routed and the veeder root will have a very unique gear reduction device on the bottom that offsets the drive shaft in order to meet the pump below!
Theres probably quite a few 60's that were made into showcases but its very easy to find the fakes!!---KEVIN

A pump without the guts is like a car without an engine!! Leave em' in. Kent.

KW,I DON'T SEE WHERE THE OTHER PIPE WOULD HAVE COME OUT OF THE LIGHT MANIFOLD TO LIGHT THE SHOWCASE.THERE IS A PLUG IN THE TOP OF THE MANIFOLD WHERE I ASSUME THE GLOBE LIGHT WOULD ATTACH.DOES EVERYTHING LOOK CORRECT IN THE PICTURES FOR A SHOWCASE PUMP?WOULD THEY HAVE USED THIS TYPE OF PUMP,MOTOR SETUP IF IT WAS NOT A SHOWCASE PUMP?THANKS.MARK

Do what ever you want! Its a 60. Is there an ID tag? Again its yours. If its me, why keep the pump. Maybe you like the weight and smell. I'm just sayin'

GENTLEMEN,MY QUESTION IS NOT SHOULD I REMOVE OR KEEP THE GUTS,PUMP,MOTOR IN IT.MY QUESTION IS, IS THIS DEFINITELY A DISPLAY SHOWCASE PUMP?I AM SURE SOME OF YOU KNOW FOR SURE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.THANKS AGAIN.MARK

YES it was.

The pump and all the piping indicate that its a showcase pump! Possibly the light manifold was changed out at some time in its history? Is the Veeder Root in it?
Another way to tell is to look at the bottom edge of the front face cover, as a showcase pump would have a small curved metal piece attached that would serve as a back stop for the lower door.
I'll go out to the shop and see if I can get a pic of the light manifold without having to take my pump apart!---KEVIN

Mark the bottom end and the legs are correct for a show case pump. Take the face housing and face off the meter and take some pictures of the top end so we can see if it is correct. Richard

The computer should have a gear train like this on the bottom

OK GANG!! Heres 4 photos that show things that are incidental to the showcase pump!
Photo #1 is the bottom of the face plate cover showing the little flange that acts as a stop for the showcase door!

Photo #2 is the light manifold showing the extra pipe coming off the front and going across the pump and down below the computer to illuminate the showcase!

Photo #3 is the back of the light manifold, showing the electrical IN tube thats closest and the tube that comes out the back, directly behind the farthest light socket and it travels directly downward to just below the computer to illuminate the showcase from the other side!

Last but not least is a photo showing the position of these 2 bulbs below the Veeder Root, that are used to illuminate the showcase!!!


The gear reduction system that Joe has pictured is the correct one and is exclusive to the showcase pump as it moves the input shaft a couple inches and also changes the gearing! I hope that this helps everyone in the future for identification!!!---KEVIN
PS--How do you like my Dick Bennett decal that gives the settings??
