My Grandma died years ago but I have something to remember her by. She didn't have built in cupboards in her kitchen but had two metal cabinets to keep her dishes in. When she died the family had a household sale and I bought two of the cabinets. I kept filters and paint and "stuff" in them in my shop. The doors fell off one of them so I bought a store bought one to replace it and set the one out by my scrap wagon but never threw it away for I always wanted a gas pump and had the cabinet in my mind to build one. Two years ago I started it but when I thought I was about done I could see swirls in the green paint on the front in the sunlight so I thought when the paint was dry I would get some finer sandpaper and sand it again--but it sat in the Wife's garage for a year and half until this winter. My Dad always ran Standard gas and I was going to make it a John Deere pump but when I was looking for Globes on E-bay I saw this Sinclair one and I also have Olivers so I made it a Oliver one--Most $$$ was for the globe and holder-I have about $350 in it.--I GOT IT DONE!---Tee
This is what I started with.
Work in progress--About ready to sandblast
More work . the Amish sheared the steel in the front
My paint inspector
Right side
Left side
Crank--Does nothing--looks pretty!
All done
It has a bulb in the globe and lights up
So does the diesel--Three layers of plexi-glass outside one-clear-second one letters on it-third one painted red
