I just can't say enough good things about this company and the ease of shipping gas pumps anywhere in the whole United States! The most they need is access with the tractor trailer rig at both the pickup and delivery locations and you're set to go! They don't seem to need anything special done to the pump aas they simply roll it into the van body and throw a blanket over it and strap it to the side of the trailer!
The transportation arrangements are made thru the coin-op division of the Beltman group. The toll free number is 800-959-8880 or you can also email Booker at coinop@beltmann.com
There shouldn't be anyone scared of buying a gas pump because they were worried about how to get it home! This outfit makes it easy and they seem to be very reasonable!

Its taken me several years to redo it, but I wanted to show off my Tokheim 39 pump. Its a 1947 Tokheim 39 LHR or Lowboy with internal hose reel. The first picture is as I got it.
I let my wife pick the brand. She likes horses, so she picked Mobil. So now its a Mobilgas Special pump
I removed the hose reel and pump mechanism. In their place, I installed a small TV and cable box.
We reworked the back room in our house in a 50's gas station/diner theme. Its not quite done, but getting there.
I have an Eco Islander that I hope to restore soon and it will go to the left of the pump. Coke cooler is a reproduction.
The ceiling in the room has a Fiberstars fiber optic star kit. I painted the ceiling black with some accent colors, trying to make it look like a nighttime sky. The pictures don't show it too well, but it gives a unique appearance to the room.
I made a valence around the room using powdercoated aluminum and polished stainless steel. When the star lights come on, an electro luminescent wire glows giving the appearance of neon lighting.
We also have a Wurlitzer jukebox and coin scale in the room.
I still have to install a stainless countertop and get the Islander done, but I'm pretty happy with the room so far.

i am restoring a wayne 60. i don't have the front and rear flat panels but will have a local metal ship make them. the twist connectors, that hold these panels on, are still installed in the frame rail. my questions are: do i just drill round holes to accommodate these connectors or are they slotted holes? also, how do i install the second panel as the side panels are screwed in from the inside and once the first flat panel is installed i cannot get to the backside of that panel to install the connectors? help. thanks.

Does anyone have the history of the Nourse Brand Oil and Lubricants? Did they ever have there own brand of gas or a globe associated with the company?
Thanks for any info!

I am thinking about going to the dixie gas show in Tn. and was wondering if it would be worth driving 2.5 hours? I wouldn't be able to make it until the last day of the show which would be on Saturday.
