Hi Petros
Here are the Pix how I get my Shell Pump ..... It was advertised in a german Classifiedsforum similar to your Craigslist.... The Pump was used to fill up the Little Tractors that work for a big Hothousecompany at the araea of Cologne, Germany .... I bought it right out of its original Place. The Pump was fully complete only the key for the case was missing ... I had to replace one Screen . did alot of cleaning and covered a part of one sidedoor with foil because this door seems to be replaced from another Pump out of the same series but with different stripecolours ( The Super-pumps had different Striping than the Diesel-Ones at this Kind of Shell-Pumps ) Greetings Andy

Nice pump. You did a great job on it. It looks a lot like a Southwest Model 45 gas pump that were made in the United States.
I likeShell

I'm I correct in that that is original paint? You only cleaned it? If I'm understanding that correctly, WOW, beautiful survivor!!!

Hi Steve
There were only a few damaged small spots that i fixed with enamel paint and this particular spot that had to be changed in Color but yes its now 95 % Original like it was made in 1962... The Globe is a( quite cheap )gift from a friend of mine because it makes no sense to me purchasing a glassreproduction for the same amount I spent on the whole pump 4 years ago...... Some more Pix of the Procedure attached Greetings

Est ist sehr schön...
Actually both your pumps are wonderful--with original colors in such good condition. I couldn't imagine this pump would look so good in a greenhouse/hothouse with such high humidity. Even the inside metal seems to have very little corrosion.
