Hi all, these faceplates are too ‘new’ for me to figure out. I was wondering if anyone knew what they go to. I tried the gas pump bible and haven’t had great luck.

1) the first one appears it may have been Gulf (11” x 20.5”)

2) this one says “Smithway” on it. I don’t know if that’s the same Smith pump company in the gas pump bible, but the closest one that has a face wider than the height might be the Smith L-1DP on the bottom left of page 312. (12.5” wide x 10.5” tall).

3) the third one may go to some sort of blendomatic pump because there is a plate added over all the tiny windows you can see on the backside (but it's not the same as the Sunoco ones) (approx 14” x 24”)

If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Steve

Yes,3rd one is a Wayne 511 3 digit read out pump face.
Because they weren't 4 digit readout and couldn't go past $9.99,it was modified to reflect the much higher after Oct.1973 Oil Embargo prices,showing price for a 1/2 Gal now.
Un-screw that shield to see what lies beneath,you may be surprised...

Second are Smithway L-1 for sure.

I'd like to see what the blender looks like without the cover. If you are selling, I might be interested in one. Thanks!

Thanks a ton guys. I really appreciate the help. 🙂 ⛽️

I looked at some pictures and those are definitely AO Smith / Neptune L-1 AND Wayne 511 pump plates.

Now I just need some help with the orange one. Another fella said it is off of a 76 pump, not a Gulf. I just don’t know the make and model.

And yes I would be interested in selling. Let me figure out a price and I’ll let you know. You have first dibs, since you helped.

Thanks, Steve
