Looks great Matt,im loving all the "un-restored" pumps ,very impressive collection!The ALL RED MS70 looks great ,i cant wait to start on mine! Thanks for the inspiration!
Matt, your collection of pumps is enviable! You don't really need two Wayne40's and I know a guy who really wants one!
i hope you never restore the turquoise 60t. i think if i could have any pump, anywhere, itd be that one
Looking good Matt. I'll have to come by and see your place sometime!
Chris, the M&S 70 is brush painted. Wanted to try something different.
Lance, you would not want my 40s - they have no guts.
Jason, you are welcome to come by, just let me know. I would like to see your office, it is just hard to get out your way during business hours.
WOW. Very nice.
Your work bench looks like an old drafting table. I've got one very similar.
Mike
Super!Thanks for the pictures.Mark
Matt, awesome to see your collection. Also great to see people just dont collect restored beauty queens. I was wondering the other day why we don't have a "show your garage thread"
Talk about TRUE HEAVEN inside a Garage!
do you let just anyone back your car into your garage ?
Now you have seemed to outgrow your garage. Like the rest of us you need a bigger building and taller to grow with your great finds and restorations. Looks good
Terrific looking collection, Matt! You have a lot of "eye candy" there. Most of it looks as if one could lift up the nozzle from the receiver and start pumping gas into a vintage rig. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Agreed, Matt - you HAVE outgrown your garage. I'll tell you what (as a favor), I will take a few off your hands all you have to do is ship them to San Antonio and that will take care of your problem. LOL - VERY nice collection.
What is that truck that we can see the headlight of?
I especially like the crackle finish on the Flying A.
...looks good, Matt - you DO need a bigger garage...
Here are my two old trucks. One is a 58 GMC and the other is a 56.
super nice cant wait to see that cities service pump painted
Matt, Great Collection of pumps.
Here are my two old trucks. One is a 58 GMC and the other is a 56.
NOWWW I see the problem - you have too many trucks. I will extend my offer to me buying my own airline ticket and I will take those two old gas guzzlers off your hands and drive them back to San Antonio. Obvisously my original offer still stands and you can just load the pumps in the back of the truck(s). Anyway, back to reality - those are things of beauty you have an outstanding collection. I love the '56!!! Thanks for sharing.
Matt ,the finished result is great,its hard to believe thats hand painted,i think im gonna get a brush & some white paint & get er' done my ms70 needs some attention! looks great man!
Matt, You have one great line up of pumps.
Matt, Love the trucks. But if I had to pick one, I'd go with the Patina and leave you the nice one!
Doc, I will sell it to you if you want it.
Matt,
Nice collection of pumps!! Really loving the Wayne 60T! I hope you never restore it. Nice petina!!!!

Looks great Matt. Awesome collection. Do you still have the trucks, or did you sell them for garage space??
Nice Signal pump. Is that a Bennett 541 with no add glass?
Your collection just gets more and more impressive Matt. You have so many amazing pieces.
Mind boggling , and impressive are the only words I can think of .
Thank you for the comments.
The trucks are gone. I got burnt out on my truck hobby. The nice green one was the last to go. The sale of it is what got the Erie 53 and Wayne 50 (as well as some other things) into the collection.
The Signal pump with no ad glass is a Bennett 371, looks the same as a 541.
Looks great Matt, really got the Shell envy going on.
Matt,
I always enjoy looking at your pumps! What is even better is talking with you about how you acquired each one! Keep going!
Rob
Love the photos, Matt. Your collection is amazing. Your collecting strategy is a lesson for others. Thanks for sharing with us!
Great collection Matt! That is very impressive. Thank you for sharing.
Very nice collection! I really like the Firestone display
I remember you also had an outdoor collection--porcelain pumps I think. Good thinking about the trucks--you can get more pumps in your garage than trucks... : D
Beautiful collection!
So what model is the Bennett with ad glass front and rear and not on the sides ?
