When I started reading this thread I expected to see an excellent looking pump; but the finished product is so much more than I expected.
Congrats to all those that had a hand in producing such a gem!
Kevin, I know that I never would have had the foresight to envision such a jewel; great job!

Beautiful Kevin! Was the rest of the white on the pump originally porcelain? I assume so if you had the lower doors done. They did an awesome job with the Cities logo there....Gary

Gary-- The rest of the pump is painted steel. I had those panels done that way because of the other porcelain pumps that were done for Cities Service by Tokheim and Erie. I had the contacts to get it done, and I thought it would really add to the pump, so I went with it!

Man , what a nice pump Kevin . It looks so neat loaded with all the goodies . You can just stare at it and take a step back in time . I think you need a model t wrecker now done up in cities to match it . ...and make a mini station inside your shop. Great looking pump !
I like SINCLAIR and old American made stuff ... No china items.

It seems that most projects take much longer that originally planned. That being said, Kevin, it looks magnificent! Since I'm into signs and not globes, is that a standard Cities Service globe or something rare? It's also nice that you had some very nice smalls to stock it with.
