Decals and ID Tags. My friend said that the Franklin dealer where he bought the pump sold Pennsoil.

Decided to machine some missing parts out of my scrap.I don't know how I was able to get the meter tube packing gland and nut off without destroying them. Also made a "sort of"diverter cap.

Made the meter tube handle out of an aluminum bearing housing and hot rolled rod. Also need to make up the 5 gal locator fingers. The only repros I found were for the 10gal.

Spent quite a bit of time fitting the conduits. Cutting and rethreading and the connectors barely tighten down together. The bannana nozzel was a local auction find. From the Voc-Ag Shop at my high school,their scrap pile provided the stone guard material.

I guess this is where I am at this point. Sorry for the barrage of photos. I finally got the knack of resizing the photos! Still looking for a restoreable base with pump unit. A quick flow shutoff valve. The locator fingers I guess I will have to fabricate. A white fabric hose would look better. The "goodwife" indulged me and bought me a price box for Christmas!

The yellow ended up to be a dead on match of the original first coat of paint. The layers after were brushed red oxide next a medium green and finally flat black. I repainted red oxide inside.
