Dennis you're not alone in that thought.
I didn't really know if you guys would be that interested in this.Thank You!
I am looking for an unmolested mate for it,now that I have the hang of it and an influx of extra parts too,but it has to be holding a 3 digit pre-oil embargo computer.I don't want a later 4 digit,which there seems to be alot more of.
I used a few other pumps as a diagram,and actually bought another crappy partial pump to remove parts off of.That and attending as many oil & gas shows as I could,especially during the winter months.If you're not there by 6AM,you mind as well turn around and head back home because anything of value will be swallowed up already.
I found the wiring schematic & parts diagram in an old Wayne Service & Assembly manual.It was very helpful,but it was the input from fellow collectors,AND especially the few original gas&oil jockeys walking among us.You know who you are..
You guys are really under appreciated in my book...and of course,YOU WERE THERE!
There's a pic I posted on page 1 with it's lights on.The protective gun guards first came out in late 1960's,early 70's I believe & in various colors from what I've seen.This one was still holding a red one when I found it...Good eye on the date Pete.
Don't get me wrong,collecting and acquiring anything having to do w/Chevrolet and their vehicles is first and foremost with me and always will be.But Sunoco comes after that,as it was always considered the Gas station to work at when I grew up.Their gas grades catered to the Hi-Performance leaders,and was one of the first stations to offer the New Wayne multiple blending grade pump to the general public.
While I was in the Sunoco zone,I also found something that is the perfect companion piece to this that I've been working on too and I'll post pics of that shortly.
Here's a small vintage hint..
