Finished first Gas Pump...pics

This was my first gas pump restore, easier than a soda machine since there are no internal parts to deal with.

That looks sweet! Why no globe on top?

Very Nice Indeed ! ! !
As far as a globe is concerned, that would require altering the original top, which some people do, but it looks good either way ! ! !

Good looking pump.

I have an M&S 80 but done in red with white doors.  I found an ad glass top on ebay that someone had cut a hole in top so I adapted it to have a globe.  It makes it pretty tall but looks good either way.  I have been thinking about just putting the short top on it for a little change.

Looks great!.. I would not do the glob on this one either... hold out for a Script top or ad glass top for it if you'd like or just leave as is!
Very nice... I like the ms80's.. I just bought a Ad Glass Top for my 80 in chicago. It helps turn a 300 pump into a 700 pump.

Looks great without the Globe to me! I'd keep it as is.  nice job!

I like it too. I didn't mean I didn't like it without the globe I just thought all 50's pumps had globes. I think it is really clean looking without it. Nice pump

     What's an ad glass top? 

[cormy]

Thanks guys. I perfer pumps without globes for some reason, the globes make them look older in my eyes, I was going for a late 50's early 60's look for this one.

An ad glass top is a taller top that has a cut out panel for a glass insert that advertises the particular brand of gas. Usually lighted behind also.

There is a Blue Sunoco ad glass top for this model and I may install one in the future.
