I would like to know if there is anyone who has restored a BENNETT 76 pump?
Anyone carry parts for these pumps?
By "restoring"...Not a workabled pump but a nice display model.
Thanks.

Steve: I bought parts from Vic's. But that was before Don Beaver bought it. Vic's is in your neck of the woods. Mine has the Standard oil bezels and i had to find one of those. I got it from a member here..think it was Tom Buckles....my memory is getting bad. When I finished it and posted a picture here, the sharp eyed members here gave me a bad time for turning a Standard oil pump into a Texaco Ethyl....LOL. Post some pics when you get it. They are a nice looking pump.

Here is the thread with Alex`s pump. It is a good looking pump. The ones with the visi gauge are more rare than the ones with a sight glass. Also the Sohio bezela are hard to come by. http://www.oldgas.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=428893&page=all

Thanks for the photos Matt.
I like the style...something different from the curved dome types.
What would of been the Standard Oil Company of California's painting scheme for these? I collect SOoC stuff.
Thanks.
