The clips that hold the sides of the pump to the frame, Can you buy those? I am going to have to grind mine off. The bolts are way too rusted and I have tried to remove them with no luck.

You can heat them and they will usually come off. I might be able to come up with a couple if you need some. I sell a ton of them.

If you plan on drilling them out, try and put a pair of visgrips on the tread side to get them started.If there is enough threads once they are started I can usually get them out without drilling. If not you can still drill them. Richard

I don't bother with them most times. I just drill thru the flange of the panel and the frame and use a screw and nut, just like how a Tokheim 39 is put together from the factory. At least this is an alternative that works well if you are not planning a concours restoration.

Drilled them out. I think using a nut and bolt is a great idea.
