On my Wayne blender pump there is a bracket on each side

Those side bkts. were designed to hold doublesided advertisements and gas grades that Wayne let their clients go ahead & make.





I've seen a few,mostly made of cardboard,and they didn't last very long,due to weathering/fading.
I recently found an all metal 1968 doublesided DX gas grade chart,that fits right in there.

Cool. Is there a picture of a Conoco Blend pump? What grades numbering did they use? Same as Sunoco? Being form the east coast I only knew of Sunoco using blend pumps. John

Only four grades on it,although it has 9 sets of wheels behind the plate.
. Thanks again Rick.

Mick, is the porcelain face on your pump one piece or two pieces? I ask, as I have a porcelain plate that just covers the holes, and would turn a different brand blend pump (like Sunoco) into the Conoco brand.

Two pieces don. My plate shows four grades,where you could change it to show up to 9 different grades( I think) and also would change the brand if desired .
here's a pic of the plate off the face.
. If anyone has pics of different plates like this,would be cool to see them.

Here's 2 different originals used on my Sunoco Wayne 511 Blender.
They both have 3 studs in the back.
First one measures 4-1/4 X 18".
Second one measures 5-1/4 x 18".
