scott the fiberglass tops were used after the ad glass curved tops i have a red and green from the late fifties and early sixties, the light bulbs inside illuminates the whole top if someone hasn't put to many coats of paint on it. you don't run across these very often so good find. It's also the only time conoco used the green triangle emblem and a black diesel triangle with black fiberglass top which i have not seen yet, Also the green petro restoration book shows good descsription and pictures of these under conoco section and here's picture i found one day don't remember who's these are Laroy

I have a few of these pumps, bought them because I thought they were unique and cool. (and cheap)
The tops are faded from the sun on mine.
