The guy who owns this building is trying to get it back to as original as he can and is looking for a visible pump like the one in the picture. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Bob, it looks to be a Service Station Equipment or Clear Vision model 498 about 1927. Now I don't know of one for sale . I can tell ya if this guy wants a model of the place , uh call me . I'll be happy to make a very detailed scale replica , WITH a scale replica of the pump too. Ed Shaver

looks like they need a Zerolene flange also-
Is the product of pump Red Crown?
The Harrington garage sign advertises Zerolene & Mobil-
cool picture.. cool

There appears to be a Zerolene flange between the entrance and the right window installed at the height of the top edge of both.

Thanks for the info guys....
The picture has the date 1930 written on the back.

Ed it does look like a Clear Vision alright I had just never seen one before and I will let him know about your very generous offer.

Tom.... pm will be sent back.

Randy you're right on the Zerolene flange and it is a Red Crown globe..... fortunately I got one from an OldGas benefit auction awhile back and never really had a plan for it, but now it has a place to go.
He is also going to try to reproduce the Zerolene/Mobil sign.

In the blown up picture I have there is a Ford sign in the right window and it looks to be a white sign with "Ford Sales and Service" in dark lettering..... seems like there was some discussion on here about a similar sign recently.
