Hello, from east central Illinois. My main passion is aviation; I'm a pilot and small aircraft owner. I farm for a living. I love petroliana, but don't have a collection beyond a couple oil cans. That said, I do have this old gas pump that's been hiding in the back corner of the shed for decades. It was in service on the farm when I was a kid, up until the 90s when the underground tanks started leaking and were replaced with more modern above ground dual wall. Anyway, this Bowser was stuck in the shed and forgotten. Id like to cosmetically restore it for outdoor display, and this seems to be the place for old gas pumps. Looking forward to learning about my old pump and its history.
