Bennet Gas Pump  Sinclair In the early 1960's my dad owned a Sinclair gas station. At that time gas was 25.9 cents for regular gas and 29.9 cents for high test. I found this original Bennett pump at a car show-swap meet and purchased it. The pump should make a great night light.  Now to find gas for under .30 cents a gallon.
Mobilgas Sign As I was returning home with the Sinclair gas pump, I stopped at a friends house to show him the pump. He complimented me on the pump and asked if I new of anyone who would like to buy a Mobil Flying Horse sign. A person that owned it had moved and needed to sell the sign. I stated that I was interested and would like to look at the sign. The sign was purchased on the spot and transferred home.
Allis Chalmers B Tractor I have been in need of a small tractor to plow the winter snow and to clear and mow the brush around my properties. I purchased this Allis Chalmers at an estate auction. The tractor had not been started for many years. After a few ours of cleaning, adjusting, tinkering and a new battery, the tractor started for the first time in many years. The reason for including the tractor in the Corvette web site is:
Gas station sign post As I was transporting the tractor home I noticed a large hanging sign post in front on an old home. I believe the home was once an early gas station and converted to a home. The sign octagonal style post looks like an original Mobilgas post I viewed on the internet. The sign post measures 21'-9" in height and has a sign arm of 9'-0". There is also two lights that project from the sign arm to illuminate the sign.
