Picked up this very nice Delco Batteries Thermometer. Signed and dated STMS 1965. Also picked up this great graphics paint sign. The flange was hacked off of it, so I took it to work and cut a clean edge and made a new flange and spot welded it on. I am in the process of restoring the edges now before painting. Anyone know if BPS made automotive paint?

Geez Louise Rick, those are darn nice. They are actually the ones I don't have. Never seen the L/L one before! That's some nice GULF bling! Me jealous!

OK picked this sanford and son load up today. I just sold my Tok 36B-TW Tydol shoebox spec pump and I thought I would never find another one. Unbelievable...And in Florida. The ten gallon can is cool it has the original sticker that says herculene I think. Is the meter an Eco clock? Pretty happy about that too. OK I lied when I said nothing is in Florida. I mean now there is nothing:)

 Picked up both of these this week. If you seen one Wayne 60 narrow body you seen them all but the automotive tester was just plain cool. From the manuals I got with it this machine dates to 1942. The tester was one of those deals...I don't need it but just couldn't let it sit there. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Picked this sign up this week. I am not an Oilzum collector yet but I liked the look of the man on it. It is double sided. The back side has more chips in the center but you can read the lettering on the bottom. The man was named Oswald. The sign advertises for the White & Bagley Company of Worcester Massachustetts. Oilzum came about in 1905. The Oswald logo came out in 1910.

Anyone know if BPS made automotive paint? That "Look into it!" sign has super graphics. They mostly made general purpose and house paints, but BPS did make auto paints. I've got a BPS automotive chip brochure and the can pictured here that looks like your sign. Hard to find BPS automotive stuff.

My buddy wasn't helping me move the pumps out of this shed. He felt bad and offered to take the last 1 which was the heaviest. The extra wide extra heavy 36BTydol. Holy ***** is that heavy.

I stumbled across this oil cart last week and couldn't resist. I've been looking for one for about 6 months or so and found this one about 3 miles from my house and the price was right. It's probably a little rough for some of the veteran members on here but I loved finding a local piece and wanted to share.
Of course it will need a full restoration (i'm thinking Sinclair Opaline) but it's solid with no rust holes, still has the original dip sticks, lids, and both pumps are in working order. It's missing the wheels and axle so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
