I recently had one of those milestone birthdays. To celebrate, I bought myself a gas pump project. Here's before and after of my Tokheim 39 short gas pump.

I completely disassembled it, had it sandblasted (7 coats of paint were removed) body work done and then repainted by a body shop. Then I rewired the AC on the pump, replaced missing and broken items, reassembled it and below is the way it looks today.

Terrific job, so is it fully functional now? A great gift to your self and for your birthday.
 
Happy birthday and great work. You got some talent.
 
Happy Belated B-D as well. Beautiful job. I think it would be cool if you make it to pump BEER!

Paul, that was always my favorite gas back in the seventies. I'd stop by my local station on the way to the track, in my '64 Dodge, and fill her up with Texaco Fire Chief. It was like an instant tuneup and it always smelled so good!

Oh, by the way...

HBD. Nice piece to start with too. Where did you source it?
