The gentleman that's giving them to me said they probably never had the globes on top, not all pumps had them. The pumps and motors are still in them but should I even care? Kind of glad I'm not married, I'd really catch the dickens over this! |laugh| |cheers| 

One of those old pumps turned out to be a 1937 Tokheim! I started tearing them down and cleaning. The guts went in the dumpster, I decided not to bother buying new doors, just leave the fronts and backs off and put in glass shelves and put some model cars in them, cheap decorations! My kids got in on the idea and found me a 1930's Kelvinator! The garage is gonna look so cool!
Next I want to find a rear clip from an old Chevy and make a sofa out of it. How tacky and redneck can one man get? I love it!!!!!!!!! |cheers|

Vette(s): 1972 coupe/350 cid/mild cam/4 spd/20 ft. paint (looks perfect from 20 ft.), but it sure runs nice.
