K W FRITH Veteran Member Registered: Sun Oct 21 2007 Loc: Devils Lake, ND---USA	If memory serves me correct, wasn't there a member some time back that had made a die to stamp that marking on the sheet metal? Can't remember if he was marketing them or not? _________________________ Everything Cities Service Specializing in old Gas Pumps kwfrith@gondtc.com Cell#-701-739-6133

gulfiend! Veteran Member Registered: Fri Jul 01 2005 Loc: Raleigh, NC	...I thought he just added metal to a flat panel, to create the illusion that it was embossed? _________________________ the future of our hobby will logically trend to authenticity; historically accurate restoration & preservation of memorabilia should be paramount...

Old Iron Petro Enthusiast Registered: Thu Sep 10 2009 Loc: New Mexico	Hi guys, I guess I had better clear it up.Yes,there was a memberwho made the die to stamp them out.It was Jeremy,AKA Itsagas,who did it using the drawing provided by DB ( thanks DB)and several pics of my 34 with real,original skins to make them as close as possible to the real thing. He was restoring a pump for someone up in Colorado (Lee?)and it came out great.If anyone is interested I'll find the post on it. He really went the extra mile to get it right.The end result was outstanding.

LC 336 Veteran Member Registered: Mon Sep 21 2009 Loc: COLORADO	It was my pump that he made the skins for and they turned out amazing. Yes they are embossed not layered with metal. Not only did he make them, and emboss them, he also did the cut outs on the side wings of the side panels. You couldn’t tell them from factory ones. I know he is swamped at work right now, I e mailed him a couple days ago about making me a door for a pump I just purchased. It may take him a while to get back to you.

gulfiend! Veteran Member Registered: Fri Jul 01 2005 Loc: Raleigh, NC	...looks great - and looks like future orders... ...I thought for sure there was some discussion of adding some layers to the door, but maybe that was about the construction of the die... _________________________ the future of our hobby will logically trend to authenticity; historically accurate restoration & preservation of memorabilia should be paramount...
