Hi..
I'm totally new here, and what a great place for pump talk.!
I'm on the hunt for a Gilbarco 906 pump with the wrinkle type doors.
Would also be interested in just the doors if someone has them..
Also on the hunt for a Gilbert and Barker model 86 .( circa 30's).
I prefer unrestored, but for the right price I would consider a restored pump.
Thanks.

Welcome. I don't understand the statement "wrinkle type doors"? Would you be kind enough to explain? Paul www.severngaspumps.com

The doors have the V trim around the sight glass, but also have vertical ribbed trim on each side of the door dial face glass..
I attempted to load a picture but file Manager limits to 150 KB.. it seems my pictures are more than that..
When I figure it out I will upload..
Thanks..

You can resize your pictures by opening them with "paint". Then the pictures will load correctly.
Otherwise, use an image hosting site, like photobucket.
FREEDOM oil items wanted.

Still looking for that Special Gilbarco 906 pump...
There must be someone out there, who has one..or knows who does..
Also looking for a Gilbarco pump from the Art Deco era.
I believe it is a model 86..

Gilbert & Barker was in the habit of putting a 2 in front of the model number if the pump was made in Canada.
