Was in Arizona last week and took a couple pictures.

A place called Wartrace, TN. Off exit 96 on I-24 between Nashville and Chattanooga. Maybe 25 miles from my place.

I still haven't made it to the last one you posted up. If I ever go up I- 24 in my truck, I'll have to be sure to drop in there.

This is probably the only gas station in the world that has a 1929 Packard 626 5 passenger sedan parked next to the pumps.

There's a guy who posts on a few other forums who built a Texaco themed garage for his personal use. Awesome garage!

That is so cool....and so is that 55 (the car). Does anyone know what year the truck is? It could be a 55 also.... I am not sure about Chevy trucks.

Abe, it's a '57 but I believe the late model '55's through 1957 all look the same.
Here's a link to his garage build.

Yes, it is a 57. I just researched them. The 57 grille is different than the 55 and 56. The 57 has two bumps on the hood that resemble the hood on a 57 car. The 58 has quad headlights.
That is a cool garage if you have the room for it. I will now go to his website.
