The 'double lever' nozzle was used on 850's with serial numbers 500,000 to 505,103 and 950's with serial numbers 345,122 to 499,999.
The others used a single lever.
This is from an original parts breakdown.

No Jack, this was a different area near Alliance, Ohio. It's the oldest known Sinclair bulk plant in Ohio. Up in the rafters there were 2 old boards black in color that were laying up there about 12 foot long each. When I flipped them over and the dust settled, they said Sinclair Oils in gold letters. Very early indeed. This important find backs up what we think may have been the colors that Sinclair used first. Scott Benjamin and I were discussing his latest acquisition, a Sinclair AVIATION one piece etched globe and they used gold to detail the plane instead of the typical red you see on AIRCRAFT versions. If you would like a picture of the Milestone clockface model #40 for the new Gas Pump Price Guide, please just let me know, always willing to help out.

Kind Regards,
Tim Rowland

Tim,

Yes, please, send me a picture of the Milestone.

Would really like a photo mailed to me, but a picture sent by email at the highest resolution you can, will work out fine.

Sorry, I don't do PMs.

Thanks,

Jack & Cindy Sim
