I have a '59 Coupe DeVille, or I should say my wife has one, and she has decided that the '59's home is due a remodel. She would like to have a vintage pump in a Fantasy style to compliment the car. Sooooo my question is in your opinion who makes the most apropos pump in a modern/space age style in keeping with the '59 Coupe DeVille? I have a couple of thoughts; Wayne 505, A.O. Smith 483 or LD-3. But would like to hear everyone's thoughts.

It all depends on your budget too But a 505 would be a cool economical way to go.

Hmmm.... something kind of "atomic age" I guess. I think this "SUPER" gas pump done in the right colors,etc, looks like a vintage robot to me. The other one is not bad either, these are slightly too new but thats OK.

How about this one from the 60's?

I think a Wayne 100 or 100A would look sweet.

Neat pump but probably a little too new.

Tokheim intercepter. Matches the age and era of the car. I don't have a picture, but a google image search will provide good photos.

This is what I had in mind when you started this thread. I could not remember the make and model so I had to look it up in Jack`s book. It is a Tokheim model 455 "Vanguard". It was made from 1958 to 1961 according to the book.

I’m changing my vote.... He needs the Sinclair ones from the 1964 Worlds Fair display.

Matt those are way cool. Don't think I have ever seen one before!

Awesome! Wonder if I could get a second mortgage to finance the purchase and build an appropriate home for it. And of course a '64 concept car or two to complete the vignette.

I do remember seeing those Tokheim model 455 Vanguards as a kid and always thought they were rather top-heavy and easy to knock down.
