I bought this pump back in January at a swap meet. It was rough, missing a door, face plates and a cracked base. It was talking to me, I wanted it even though it was not a good deal. It was priced pretty high for the condition. It came home with me and I added a ad glass, lead sign, face and sight glass bezel and put it in the out door line up. Then a few days ago I decided to scrape the blue paint and some of the yellow off. It looked better but needed more. Today I remember I had this rough Shell pump plate to add to it and now I am very happy with it. I may still add three new "Shell Premium" ad glass to it so the sides will have something.
I likeShell

For those of us in the rust prone northeast the original look was very nice but the finished look is spectacular!
