This is for sale near me but the owner thinks it is a reproduction. Experts?

Quaker Steak and Lube used some repro Tokheim 39s in the earlier stores they built...Need a closer shot of the face of the pump to really tell. But it looks good what I can see in this pic,other than missing lock near bottom of door.

He did say it is really light, he guessed 40-50 pounds which was a big red flag to me

Fiberglass reproduction look around the door glass at the plastic chrome trim and the way that the top of the door sticks out farther than the top trim. Also no lock with lift off doors Both doors are screwed on New cost around 1795.00 Weight closer to 100 lbs.
