Classic Vintage Gas Stations

Hi, dne’ here;) I know there are many people who go all out in presenting their place of play as an old Vintage Gas station. Some go all out and spare no expense and demonstrate creativity.  For me, I’ve had an opportunity to make my garage look like an old Texaco Station, somewhat.  I’m hoping for some viewers to share their fun places here on CC&T.

Of course I’m going to start off with my garage~ let’s get some people chiming in, show me what cha got!

73 Triumph TR6 and 59 Chevy Apache!

Let’s see who’s going to chime in~ If you want to play, send me a couple of pics and where you’re from! 😉

These pics are from Chip located in Glenwood, Maryland! He is seriously into the Vintage Texaco and everything Vintage! I am so jealous, but he’s a role model to follow!! Way to go Chip!!

 

 

 

Hey Chip, how bout an oil change and lube on my old 59? 😉

 

 

I’ve seen these signs and poles, I know what they go for! If I find one, I’ll buy it too! That is if Gary will let me;)

Seriously, a genuine TEXACO STAND!;)

 

 

I know I’ve seen a post card like this!!

OMG, drool! I’ve got some catching up to do!

 

I bet this sign is a tall!! Look how nice it is!;)

I can’t wait to see this up on that tall stand, that’s going to be totally awesome!!

Thank you Chip for the awesome pictures, and I know you’re extremely proud of your accomplishments and future things to come!!

OK who’s next!! ??? 😉

    I’ve often wondered if Gary is out robbing banks. I know that if I had such a hot and talented wife with a classic car fetish, I’d be out robbing a lot of banks. It’s been over 50 years since I last saw a Texaco station. We lived right next to one in the 50’s and early 60’s. I sure remember those signs, pumps and coke machines. The old leaded gasoline smelled way different than modern gas.

      Good morning Bruce;) I must admit Gary does support my classic car addiction! I remember mom pulling up to gas pumps, the nice gas attendant would say, “check the hood?” Mom would normally say, “Fill up with Ethyl please”, then the guy would swipe here gas credit card on a little plastic thing! Let’s not forget Gas wars! We’d cross the street to save a penny on gas and gas was dirt cheap! Ah, the good ole days!
