What do you want to do with these pumps?

[bigguy6100]

One of these days I want to get them out and repaint them. I also want to restore the mechanicals back to working condition. Not nesicarily to be able to pump, but to at least have the motor and lights working

[blueGuru93]

if those pumps used to be on the farm, wouldnt there be an underground fuel storage/supply tank somewhere for them? or am i just way off here lol

[bigguy6100]

Yes, we had 2 fuel tanks buried on the farm that these drew from. They pulled the pumps up in the early 80s and put them under the barn, and we dug the tanks up year before last.

I'm from Brisbane, Australia. In the early 1990s we used to have a restaurant in the city called "The Filling Station", which had a 1950s petrol station/diner theme to it. At the entrance staircase was a restored vintage petrol bowser. I can't remember which company it was from though.

Great video!

you have two beautiful machines there, hope u post a vid of them working post-restoration

[bigguy6100]

I agree, gutting them, to me, takes away from the value. I did some looking around and found the reset handle for sale. Id like to see your Tokheim working

[chargermopar]

Very nice, those still have the pumps and motors. Most collectors gut their pumps, which I think is stupid. That missing crank is reproduced, or you could even cast your own. I restored an old Tokheim pump to use with vegetable oil. I will get a video of it in action soon.
