Here are a couple I used to own. I thought I would post them because they do not show up as often as other 39s. When the short 39 first came they had large widows and a tall 39 with out ad glass is unusual. Also this one pictured is a harder one to come by because it is a high volume model with an early four digit Veeter-Root computer.

This is my only 39. I bought it in pieces with a basket of parts so no before pics. I'm not in the shop right now so not sure of the exact model number but I'll try to look and add it tomorrow. I never knew there were so many different variations of this pump until I started to restore this one. They are great pumps, everybody should have at least one!....GB

Braden great job on resurrecting POTM form. You chose the only pump that I have two to contribute. First is an original 39 short Derby pump and the other is a 39 tall with an older restoration done in Standard. Ill have to get the model numbers added later when at the house. See you in a couple of weeks when in Hays.

Hello from Gas Pump Rob,

This is a picture of a factory shortened Tokheim 39 HR (height reduction ) pump. After WW2 the Tokheim pump and tank company decided to shorten some of their existing pump panels in inventory and assemble a more modern looking pump. This is a shortened early version with the cast base, four window advertising glass , and aluminum faces.

Happy pump hunting,
Rob

That is interesting. I thought a 39 HR pump was a "hose reel" pump. My Shell 39 I posted is a 1941 39 HR VP. I do not know what the VP stands for but it dose have a hose reel.
