That would be a Stewart Warner electric fuel circa 1955 to 1975 that i know of. About the size of a 16 oz. can of beer or slightly smaller. I had one for years too as an emergency use pump to carry in the trucnk of various cars.

IIRC it was a rather expensive pump too. They were usualy used IN PAIRS on pro racing road course applications.
