    Huge market for Oil & Gas collectibles. If I restored 20 pumps a year, I could sell all 20 with zero effort, but in reality I keep most of them.

    Like cars though, I like building and restoring...
  2. Oil & Gas Collectibles will take over your life. Just a warning!

    In my old house things were becoming a little crammed as I was starting to collect oil and gas while stuffing it all inside a 24 x 24 garage next to my 55 Chev.

    It wasn't long before I had more...

    Thanks for the quick reply BAM. I found a source today for a guy around here that may have a set of fenders I can work with. Doors can be saved but will need to be stripped to see what's under the...
  6. Need some truck advice on fitment of new sheet metal? BAM perhaps?

    I've built a few cars in my time, but just bought my first truck. Initial thoughts were for a simple driver but my thinking has changed a bit. I'm leaning towards building a truck to become my...

    I built a new website dedicated to vintage gas stations, oil companies of yesterday, and guides on how to restore an old gas pump. There's hundreds of pictures, galleries of a few prestigious oil and...
  9. Bought myself another 55 but this time a truck.

    Couldn't say no to this one! It's a nice clean little driver truck that I'll soon be painting up in an Old Gasoline theme with some hand painted lettering along each side. Gonna use it as my shop...

    Same kit that I bought from Inline tube when I made all my stainless lines. Double flared them all and no leaks. Also looked at aluminum fittings and was told by Earl's and a few other that I should...

    Thanks for sharing the pics. I love Shepherds and have had a few over the years, but can't have one now as my wife is allergic to dander. Would love to get another working dog or a long hair. Maybe...

    Welcome to the site Bob. Love the handle you have. I'm assuming you're a Speed Week fan of the flats. Wanted to go this past week but couldn't shake the time as I was busy with some projects at work.

    Thanks Rob. You're not doing too bad there yourself. Took the weekend off from the Oil & Gas and hit a couple cool car shows this weekend. Didn't grab many pictures as I was busy bull shitting with...

    Here's a few more pictures of the yellow pump that I actually just finished this weekend. It's a G&B 96 that was restored back to it's original brand of Red Head. Found it locally in March of this...
  23. My Oil & Gas Collection. Yes it's become an addiction!

    Sid sent me a message a few months ago saying he added a Petroliana section so I figured I'd log in today and see how that's going? OK...so it needs a little help (lol). Myself, I didn't start...

    I still like carbs on a big inch motor! Besides, why do you think GM went away from EFI on their 572 engines? This Dominator is 1250cfm and was ported, polished and worked over with a...
