Not sure how many of you are into gas pumps.. I felt the need to share this post from oldgas.
I have just learned that gas pump expert and collector Dick Bennett has passed away. He was a wealth of knowledge with gas pumps. Talked and dealt with him many times. He will be missed.
Here is a link from old gas.
