So i started scraping paint off the gutted Wayne 70 pump I got the other day to try and reveal the decal that was painted over. It revealed Pathfinder Gasoline with a race flag. Never heard of them. I looked online and did a search and nothing..... can anyone share info ?
Thanks Larry

According to Wayne Henderson & Scott Benjamin's Guide To Gasoline Logos Pathfinder Petroleum was out of South Pasadena California until the 1960's. Looks like they were affiliated with Associated Oil Company, later Getty.

Thanks SandPCillector, and Rob.
Today I stripped down two pumps and scrapped paint. Is there any books on rebuilding veer roots ??? I plan on doi g a couple restorations, and a couple rustrations. I want to go through and clean up and fix up the veer roots. Any advice would be awsome.
Thanks Larry

If you use the search button on this site and enter veeder root you will find member jkyocom. He does veeder root rebuilds and you may find him useful. Again, good luck with your restoration project.
