Ok, Kicked off New years with a few more projects to work on... Although not soda machines... you gotta like the rounded tops and curved metal with chrome trim...
They are Bennett 1066 and 966 gas pumps... Just thought I'd share since I know most of us like this stuff too. Now i've got my hands full for a while..

Those are nice pumps, you will have lots of fun fixing those. I did my 1st pump last year (2006).

Yeah!!!! Love these pumps also.. I have a set of Bennett 700 models
yours are the same models as Flo's V8 in the movie CARS... We got
that movie for the kids but I've seen it now twice....
Glens right these look good beside a machine!
What are you gonna redo them as?....

Nice Tokheim 300 Gumbo! That was my first gas pump!
There's a swap meet in Columbia, MO the 17th (I think) of this
month... It's a Gas & Oil Swap meet at the fair ground but there's always
a machine or two.....

I like the fact that I can pick them up for alot less than a Vendo Round top too.. I too noticed they are in the cars movie, and my kids thought that was cool as well... I am going to restore one a texaco red/white them and thinking the other either matching or I've also like the Green/white sinclair with the dinosaur? not sure yet.

Those will look nice when all done. I like the looks of those type pumps. Usually easier to restore than a soda machine, less mechanical parts. Gumbo, I have a Tokiem 300 sitting in a storage shed just waiting for me to get to it.
