Title: My first gas pump restoration. Post by: Funtronics on May 12, 2010, 01:29:42 pm Well I finally finished my first gas pump. It is a Tokiem 39 and turned out great. Not much to a gas pump. It was fairly easy and fun to restore. Now I guess I need to get back to the soda machines. I have a 7-Up Vendo 110 that I am putting back together, and then I am going to tackle that Pepsi United machine next. :drinking:

gas pumps are easy and fun, and nothing better than a Vintage pump to go in the collection. Title: Re: My first gas pump restoration. Post by: loman4ec on May 12, 2010, 03:35:16 pm Looks great Rod! I love old gas pumps. That is a great model also. When I was a kid my Dad bought a flatbed truck full of Tokiem 39's and Bennets (cant remember model). Everyone in our neighborhood thought we were crazy :biggrin:

Did you also restore the thatreseats next to the pump? Title: Re: My first gas pump restoration. Post by: Funtronics on May 13, 2010, 05:42:06 am Yes I also restored the theater seats. I use to restore a lot of antique furniture years ago.
