Filling station in Galvin, Washington
This is a staged filling station because they didn't have batteries
like that back in the day. but it looks cool anyway.

ICA attendant Mamma Colonnina.
She looks as if she would rather serve you a big plate of
spaghetti rather than serve you gas.

I have heard so many stories about the owner I couldn't recall them all. more people than I can recall have seen him take a roll of hundred dollar bills out of his pocket and roll one up, light it and then use the $100.00 to light his cigars. you can't jew him down on anything. it upsets him. if you need a winshield for a 68 Camaro and one is sitting there, you ask how much? he may say $75.00. you pull your money out, you only have $70.00. will you take $70.00 for it? YEAP!! walks over to the door grabs a bat and smashes the windshield. YEAP! now I'll take $70.00! this has happen with all kind of glass perfect body parts ect ect. he held his brother down and shot his own brother in the hand for stealing $20.00 . Mark Mittin is a guy that use to do repo work for me. Mark and one of this wrenchers had a falling out and the guy tried to beat Mark up. Mark took a swing, knocked the guy on the ground, jumped on top of him and started swinging. he heard a cricket and then something cold on his neck. it was the hammer sound and an end of the owners pistol on him. he let Mark go with a warning that next time he wouldn't even know what happened. so all in all this guy is a nut. if anyone wants to let him work on their ride he's across the street from Bobby Mackeys haunted country music bar. but that another story. this may sound a little crazy but everyone that lives around here knows this guy and can vouch for what I'm saying.
Old Tresler Comet station. They were only in the Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana area. I believe they were in business from mid 60's to mid 70's. They were bought out by Ashland Oil/Speedway, and subsequently dismantled and closed down. You may remember these logos. The one with the sparks or lightening bolts is cool, but I only remember the TC one.

Re: Old Gas Stations, Hotels and Car Hop Pics
One of my solo trips after I went to Richmond, Ky for McGillicutty Speed and Kolor Pre-Thanksgiving Party. I left there and went south into GA cut over and hit AL then back in TN and then home. It took a couple days. I just took my time and ran the back roads, stayed in cheap hotels and ate at greasy spoons. Good trip!
