Front & Back Panels
My Painter Jeff R. did a great job, I then polished the corner stainless steel trim Vintage Logo from VIC's66. Both panels required "body" work & weld repairs to get them into usable condition.

Fuel-flow rotary indicators
When I got the pump it was missing the premium fuel flow indicator, So I used Dad's old Atlas lathe and cut down some 1/4" sheet plexiglass & brass rod to Fab a likeness attempt. Missed the mark on a few details but It is hidden by the pump Computer facade and very little is visible. It will work for now.

Hose & Upper Doors Installed
Got the Six foot display gas hose hooked to retractor and a $15 Portland Swap meet Nozzle. I had to replace the Back side upper door with a stainless steel replacement, I had a earlier steel-plated and bent so I source a replacement item from Used Parts Vendor with the New glass & decal after time on the Polishing wheel and rubber trim, it is surely getting there.

Finished; Mounted the Veeder & Root Computer, Front Facia reveals, Internal Switch.
Done Poll: Globe Modification or Not<?> JIM *Note: The Computer was Solid with critter and hornet MESS, resulting in a rusted solid works. Impossible to animate with dual external dc motor drives to make the pump indications operational. I SO wanted to rig a set up that would display & learn the computer op's. Static it Remains.
