This came (in a bucket) along with some other pumps, everything including the guts is here but the guy made new sheetmetal for it. I.D. tag is stamped C 513, and it doesnt appear to be in any of the books? I'd would like to get an approx value/rarity if possible. Cant get the pic downsized, I will email it if someone else wants to try to add it? Any info on this pump? Thanks

I am not really into gas pumps...but a sharmeter pump in general is a hard to find pump. I like them becuase of the shell type overhang they have over the clock faces.

Never seen one before in person. The visa gauge spinner in the picture looks like an S. Is it or is it an optical allusion based on how the picture was taken? John

The original visi's had a spinning "S". I was amazed when I found mine intact.

When I first saw the spinner I thought it was $ not an S. The station is making money when it is spinning and the costing the customer money when it is spinning.
I likeShell

What I appreciate about old items is the attention to detail the manufacture puts into an item. John

I've got the same pump, minus the visi. Found it a few years ago, still sitting in the garage! Cool pump!
