It started out life as Bowser 585, about 5 ft tall and got whacked down for who knows for sure what reason.

Tom's right, definitely a Bowser, just add 4 ft of metal on all sides or make it a nice Archie Bunker style TV, lol.

Not going to put it in my gas pump book.

Think about it, without a motor or pump it had to be a remote.

Yeah that make sense... I still think it looks kinda neat, might get it anyway... It would look cool on a bench top or shelf all restored, Im assuming I can finagle a way to get a computer and faceplate in it for ascetics...

^^^^ this, aerosol spray lube can storage, welding rod storage, oil/trans fluid bottle storage, if there's no shelf type bracket in it use a school locker shelf unit there on sale around this time. Just some ideas
