Hi, hope you are all enjoying the game. I am looking for a good photo of the generic sunray ad glass that came with the pumps if there was no special order, even a scan of one will do. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Utahbob

Bob, this piece of ad glass was for sale here on the site.... Not sure if it sold, you might want to PM Steve and he just might have what you are looking for?.....

That is referred to as a "Sunburst" and is a stainless steel insert that is placed over a frosted or colored ad glass. I found the attached image on the internet. Hope it is what you were looking for.

The Sunburst is not a piece of ad glass. This was supplied with the generic Wayne 60s, it was as piece of metal, cut out to look like a sunburst. Some were left on the pumps, most were removed, by the oil company and replaced with their ad glass.

These "sunburst" are available at: http://www.gaspumpheaven.com/shop/home.php?cat=355&sort=orderby&sort_direction=0&page=5

You can put any color glass behind them.
