THE EVOLUTION OF THE AUTOMOBILE GAS PUMP 

Glad it might be helpful! Thanks for watching and commenting. Rob

@@DonMeadows You’re welcome Don, I am glad you enjoyed the outdoor tour. Btw you mentioned pinball room and I find that interesting because I also collect pinball machines 😁😁😁I appreciate the EMs but collect tge 1990s games and newer. What era pinball machines do you have in your collection? Thanks for visiting my channel. Rob

You have a point there! Yes dinosaurs haha

Thank you for sharing your experience and story from the past! I am glad you saved the pump and sign and passed it to your Nephew.

You’re welcome Tom ! Thanks for watching it .

Thank you for your continued support of my channel regardless of the content. I asked everyone what they preferred in January. The last three videos covered the responses. I have a mixed viewer channel but all my content is interrelated.

Thanks! You are correct in saying that they had spills using the bucket. I remember reading that. At the very end of the video it ends on a modern pump with a tv screen like you mentioned. Thanks for watching and commenting. Rob

Thank you I didn’t know who that was!

Well I’m glad you found it interesting. Thanks for visiting. Rob

Thank you Robert. I am glad you found this video interesting. ⛽️⛽️⛽️⛽️

I envy you operating that ten gallon visible filling up tractors!!! That would be fun at least until your arm got tried of pumping the handle! Would love to see your brother’s Skelly pumps sometime. I am glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for leaving a comment.

@@gaspumprob Next time I drop by his place I'll get a few seconds of the Skelgas pumps. I think he has at least one on display. I know we poured a little slab and stubbed up some conduit so he could send power out to them. I used to know how many pumps to a gallon on the old pump out on the farm. Many a time I would make a game of closing my eyes and pumping then stop to see how close I was to the mark on the glass at 3 or 4 gallons. Ahhh..the memories. Dad always said that was goldflake paint but he could've just been joshing me.

@@tractorman4461 Thank you , Great story and memories for sure! Please make a note of the pump manufacturer and check the ID tag for a model number of you can. Appreciate it

@@gaspumprob heck I figured you’d know immediately what they are !!Thx fir reminding me though I wouldn’t have thought of finding the info. LOL

@@tractorman4461 All I need is a picture but thought you would have no way to send me a picture lol . I wish we could post pictures in the comments section. How about a quick pan of the pumps in one of your videos? Just a thought

That is interesting- part built into a wall!!! Thanks for sharing. Rob

@@gaspumprob been there so long the wall is built around it. Left the pump in place. From around the fifties I'd say.

@@fellazvintageretro2675 It would be great if you could buy that pump but maybe impossible to get it out without damaging the wall?

Hello Rodney, That is a ten gallon cylinder. Can’t believe $ 5.00 bargain basement sale item!!! Haha We need to find you the rest of the pump to display in front of your garage!

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed seeing these old school pumps.

@@gaspumprob ⛽🙂👍⛽

Thank you for leaving a comment here as well. I am glad you enjoyed the video!

Thank you my friend . May I Post it on your pump group page?!

@@gaspumprob I already made a post and pinned it to the top. This is a great video for anyone new to the hobby.

@@chevelle74us Thank you for doing that!!!

Interesting story and I remember hearing s story similar to this but the guy who did that never got caught . I guess he will pay for it in the end. That is neat that you still have a old school station like that and seeing the last pump in my lineup reminded you of that station and story. The clouds were beautiful the day we shot this video adding to a nice backdrop. Thank you

@@gaspumprob sure the clouds are beautiful and they gave a good backdrop but what you're missing out is what you see everyday. We don't see it everyday. Just like not seeing the trees for the forest or vice versa. Now I appreciate the beauty of the trees and which I live around or live in between. But I sometimes forget how other people may be out in Kansas really find those trees beautiful. Just like that little bit of a mountain behind you compare to the Rockies as you get farther into or maybe it was a bigger mountain inches farther back in the background than I realized. There's something majestic and beautiful about an item that large. I was out the Rockies one-time came out of a hardware store with a straw hat. They were on sale for $2.50 a piece or something like that. At tourist traps they would have been 20 something. And it's been a few years ago. I knew where our travels are going to take us I thought it would come in handy those hats and the boys liked them anyway. Anyhow I turn and look and go wow 😳. Several people around me look and said what what what what does a plane falling out of the sky what's going on mr. I should look at that mountain 🏔️. Everybody just kind of looked at me and said so what and a half a dozen people just kind of melted away. I was head over to the McDonald's back when I didn't care so much about my health I guess. My boys and me and these two people went over there chit-chatting sit down and I'll just gazing into wonderment of this mountain 🏔️. Where else could you get a 75% hamburger for $3 and have a million-dollar view! As far as the story about the guy still in the gas I think that's what you're referring to. They caught him and ironically they figure he stoled quite a bit. So if he did not want to go to jail. The deal was he painted gas station owner so much money. He did. And he was banned from that gas station and it was by far the cheapest one around. Okay I also gave your link to a guy almost to the East Coast. Because I figured you had the utmost authority that I know of gas pump ⛽. Funny thing is when I talk to text. I say gas pump ⛽ and the next word if I pause to let the microphone turn off. The next word that is suggest is Rob!I guess I've said gas pump Rob so much it just assumes that's the proper words to go together. Well you have a wonderful day we got up close to sixty years today and today is supposed to be I think around 50 so that's fairly warm for us this time of year. As a side note did you know that at the end of The run for the falcon. It was the Torino body style. 1970 or 71 is when the falcons cease to be produced in the United States owe it overlapped with Ford Torino.

Seriously that end clip was thought of on a whim while filling up my gas tank!!! Thought it would close the video out nicely.

Yes make a few more comments separately lol

@@gaspumprob well that was quick and it did finish it out nicely.

Thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed it!!!

Thank you very much!!! We will keep pumping!! Lol

Going back to the GMC COE next

I think it was misrepresented on youtube

@@gaspumprob sounds good. Hey I got a question for you. What is that RV at the back of your gas pump at your Ranch? Because I saw two of them sitting out in Kansas in a parts yard. I think they're the same as what you have in case you're looking for something. I need to get ahold of that fella cuz I'm going to see about buying a couple of cars out of a junkyard.

@@gaspumprob I'm not sure what you meant by misrepresented by RU-vid.

Welcome to the hobby of collecting vintage gas pumps!

Thank you Jeff!!! I really appreciate your help shooting this video feature!!

@@gaspumprob thank you for having me and my family out for this event! I didn’t know you had so many hoses and nozzles! Haha

@@jeffs_garage 😂 haha

Thank you my friend. I have not opened it up for public viewing. It could be done but would require some organization and hard work. I am glad you thought it was interesting.

Thank you. Yes I sell some duplicate parts but will not ship heavy large parts like pump doors . It’s a hobby for me not a business. Thanks for watching and commenting. Rob

Wow 3D modeling sounds very interesting! Try joining a gas pump Facebook group and you can ask for rough measurements. The 1950s pumps stand at five feet tall no globe. A 30s or 40s gas pump is right at six feet tall without a globe on top.

@@gaspumprob thanks!

Thank you my friend!!! I appreciate your support of my channel. You like the same stuff I like !!!

@@gaspumprob Friends forever Rob !

I appreciate you watching and commenting my friend. 😃
