Im looking for a little help determining the value for this pump and sign. I think the pump is a wayne 70 but i dont know much about them. The globe is a reproduction and the guy wants to keep it. Its also missing the hose and the handle for the pump.

the sign is the gargoyle mobileoil. I tryed looking it up but didnt find any the were the same with the red stripes across it. its double sided and the the guy has 4 of them in different conditions. One is in a frame that would sit on a sidewalk out in front of a garage/gas station. Thanks for any help.

the sign has been restored and all touched up. pay what you want, its not big money.
what did you find out on the pump?
does it have a back side, whats the guy asking?
never hurts to give up the info you do know before asking for more.

i don't think it has been restored/touched up. He has a few others also and the price was depending on condition. any ware from $350 up to $1200 for a sign that was in great shape and still on the frame that use to sit out on the sidewalk. they are all double sided.

The pump is a wane 70 pump, the ones i have seen in unrestored condition are around $700-$1000 and around $3000 restored.

he has a few other old signs i may try to get also that are bigger in size. there is a "chevy super service" sign on a hanger for the side of a building i thin that is about a 5' circle but i think that one has been touched up. the other is a large "pepsi" sign that is about 9'-10' square. Its a yellow sign with the red/white/blue bottle cap.
