A couple of weeks ago, I found an old gas pump dumped in the woods not far from my neighborhood. Yesterday, I set out with a screwdriver to bring back a cool bit of automotive ephemera.

This looks pretty great in my study now:

Why not bring the whole thing back? Give it a good scrub it could be a really cool piece.

At a local repair shop where I used to live, they had an old gas pump just like that, refurbished to fit a TV. It was super cool.

Put a magnetic backing on it and stick it on the front of the refrigerator, preferably in the workplace.

Someone with more inclination could, I'm sure. I just don't have anywhere I can put an old gas pump.

Wow. No bullet holes. Well, maybe one. Very nice find.

Was there a price per gallon on it?

Yup, 60 cents!

I have a garage that's full of Phaeton.

Super cool. You should get the unit that turns as it dispenses gas.

Outside next to the garage?

Wow, it's been out there since the late 70s.

Looks like a late 50s early 60s Wayne 505
