Oh cool! Chris' photo sparked the same idea here ... I've got a Sinclair logo on the (one) completed end of Chambers Gas & Oil garage and thought this pump would make a refreshing change from the old visible pump that everyone seems to model ... although Chuck's version of that makes it rather tempting.  Anyway, long way to go before I get that far ... so I can watch Chuck make this one and see what I can copy in 1/35 ... mine will have to be "clean & pretty" though, as I'm modeling roughly the era in which the pump was made. Thanks to Chris for the pix & dimensions and Chuck for the nice drawing! All saved for reference ... Still on the fence ... and plenty of time to decide here ... alternative might be Wayne 851 from 1930 shown below ... my garage will be circa 1942, so the pump shown above might be a little too "new fangled". Cheers, Dallas |

I prefer the visibles, but those clockface pumps are neat too. I have learned the Bennett pump I am planning first came out around 1939. Just in time for gas rationing!

Hello, what do you think of this combination of old and new. There is an old forge which has been converted into a fish snack.  |

Nice little building. A vast improvement over the usual fast-food structures.

After following Georges (Bill76) build of a manure spreader, thought these photos would be appropriate.

The Leaning Tower of Fresno? No, not enough graffiti nor dirty diapers lying around to be Fresno... Paul |

Well I'm relieved to see the builder was at least safety conscious enough to put in seatbelts...  Paul |
