He is on a back road to one of my customers, I caught a glimpse in the night and had to go back by the next morning. WOW! I'd like to make him an offer on the whole lot. The guy was closed. I did get his number though.

What would you guys throw out there for an offer?

I know absolutley nothing about gas pumps other than I like the ones I saw here. Any idea on the year of this one or would it be worth restoring?

4 square tops (one square top behind the white car hood)
3 chests (the third is buried but you can see the edge of in the pick with white car hood, it actually sits next to the other two.)
1 gas pump
1 Phone booth

I am thinking about the phone booth too! It would be cool redone!

I'll try and throw an "On the road travel log" in the topic title with pics for you guys. I travel Tennessee, N.C., S.C., Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, Mississppi and lower Indiana weekly. If I run across things I'll take pics and post them under "travel log" so if anybody is interested.

If I don't go for these, I'll open them up. If I do get'em I'll be done buying for quite some time and will just post.

Addition - it may be four chest is that two next to the door with chicken wire in front of it, one turned sideways?

Thanks

Hey that map stand is cool too!
That's a Tokheim 39 model gas pump a very good model from the late 40s early 50s I'd say around $350 for it
the machines I don't know enough about square tops.....
That is just a large cooler by the chicken wire...
All good stuff.... great find.....

Great find!! The ST's are a Vendo 56 solid door, Cav CSS and large Vendo. Behind the hood looks like a Cav USS. I think there may be 4 coolers. The fourth being in front of the mini van. I'd be curious to know who made the van. What is the blue thing in front of the white hood? The bike in foreground is cool. Tele booth is nice. I'd snag the fireplug as well. Good luck!!
Thanks again!!

Soon to find out, the place is stuffed with things inside and out. There is also a huge garage attached, but it was locked up with a high chain link fence all the way around it '<img'>

Super cool!! Keep us updated. I live in Southern Indiana and am always on the lookout for stuff. I wish I could get out more and scour the countryside.
