ibuzzard asked me about starting a thread on old gas/service stations. I'll just start it off with this one I have on my computer right now (desktop background).

If anyone can provide pics with Ford trucks in them, all the better. I know Donald has a couple.

 

I'll start with these. This first one is a favorite because it's a MacMillan Gasoline station. No idea who the people are. As I understand, my name had the "a" originally but my Grand Dad dropped it. So I collect MacMillan gas and oil signs and cans.



This next one is the Roswell, NM, welcome center. Nicely restored.



This Signal station is in St. Johns, OR, and has been turned into a cafe. It's a beauty. I'll do more later. Stu

 

Some more.

 

Did someone say gas station pictures.





Same station but Last Chance 56's truck in this old post below

Thanks, Havi, Stu, Tacson.I am a fan of "Petroliana",but can't post up the photos that Havi sent me.Keep 'em coming.

 

I think it would be freaking awesome if one of the big companies (exxon, shell, marathon etc.) would change their pumps and building "looks" back to the classic way like in those pics. LOL just the gas pumps would have to be modified to accept debit/credit cards

 

Ludlow,CA...out in the Mojave Desert...Cafe, motel, and a gas station. Lot's of John Wayne and Rt 66 memorabilia.

 

Couple more. Once proud. Stu

 

Here's one I robbed from google images,,,

 

I pluck most all of my pics off of the internet, after I ask the author's permission. Some I've taken the liberty when it's posted on an open forum.
It's the sharing of some great history that I believe in.
Like these from route 66:

 

 

Bill,

Show off,. Man your truck looks good. Would love to get a picture with that backdrop.

 

You come up here to Ohio and I'll take you right there. And buy ya lunch!

 

Bill, Im gonna PM you. Im thinking about Goodguys Indy.

 

How about an old service station turned into a classic car lot?
