Hi guys'n'girls

Something different again from Australia.. This Gilbarco restored in AMOCO ... yes its a traditional US brand but they came down here in Australia for a decade or two..... it ended up going to a AMOCO collector in Queensland near Surfers Paradise (where the INDY400 used to be held).. from the south to the north of Australia... I'll add so more pics in a bit..

cheers

Martin

Wow! Who says that a 60's pump can't look sharp! I like the color combinations.

yeah loved it when it was all done... of course the blue & white were painted but i couldnt ge a match for the gold strip and found nos vinyl that worked great.. it ends up having the multi-layer finish i wanted, not like the common clear coated finish of most resto's .. all the original pumps i had you could feel the different layers of paint so i do mine that way.
