I'm an entrepreneur. I often push myself into new projects I know nothing about to learn more. When I saw this pump I knew this was my next project.

My coworkers father passed and had a shop packed with old stuff anything from cars to coca cola machines and a lot of gas station items! When he offered me this pump for $60 I couldn't pass it up!
Just from research over the past couple days I have figured it's a Martin Schwartz, Wayne model 80 Series 1T Serial #123335 and a (Petro)Fina style.

I'm still trying to figure out what kind of computer is in it? I know it's a Veeder-Root but not sure size/model?

Let me know any other info and what you guys think!

M&S and Wayne 80 sections of my website don't offer much. I just never got back to finishing them. The problem is that Microsoft has discontinued backing their program "Front Page." This is the program I used to create a website with over 12,000 images, and I can't even change a name, date, you name it, on the site. Am presently working on a new website.

Here is a little information and pictures on your pump. After M&S became part of Wayne, Wayne continued to make the Model 80 pump, so this part of my website will give you a few pictures of your pump: http://petrolianacollectibles.com/wayne%2080.htm

Great buy on the pump!
The computer in your pump is a Veeder Root model 49. It is the most common model and fits almost all the gas pumps from the '40s and '50s. Parts are no problem. If you need repair info I have the VR manual posted on my web site.

Good luck with your project, Tom.
