Great shots! Just saw the exact same Gulf price sign at an antiques shop today. Very cool.

Some more cool station pictures from my photo collection. The last 2 include shots which have some cool old neon and/or tire signs that are flat out cool.

If that attendant above with the 56 or 57 Buick Roadmaster is sweeping out the trunk with a whisk broom, he gets the gold star for outstanding service!

I seem to remember an article in Hot Rod magazine (eons ago) that featured this "street driven" rail. Supposedly it was street legal, etc. TAZ

I seem to remember an article in Hot Rod magazine (eons ago) that featured this "street driven" rail. Supposedly it was street legal, etc. TAZ

Here it is:

“Dragsters for the Street” was the big cover blurb on the Mar. 1968 issue of Car Craft. Bill Fredericks, owner of a meat market in SoCal’s San Fernando Valley, built that issue’s cover car. Business was good and allowed him to spend leisure time feeding his fascination for speed. Five years after a fruitless adventure with a radical jet car at Bonneville, Fredericks was again testing the limits of speed—and insurance coverage—with his 427 Ford SOHC-powered slingshot transmogrified for street cruising. Highlighting the crimson livery and chrome was a hand-carved and -polished walnut dash and steering wheel. But CC focuses on the unique technical bits. If you look closely, you’ll find all the necessities for a “100-percent legal” street car designed by Fredericks: a modified Corvette swing-axle suspension out back and twin supine-mounted radiators under the cab. Coolant is plumbed through the frame. Slicks added excitement to the photo shoot, but the car normally ran Wide Ovals. For all his other design achievements, the CC story credits Fredericks’ superior front suspension for making the rail roadworthy. As he gets fueled at the local Standard station in Northridge (with regular??), it looks like a real-life cousin to Granpa Munster’s “Drag-U-La.” You’re not likely to see anything like this on those streets today—or those gas prices, either (27.9, 30.9, and 39.9 cents per gallon).

That's not the one I was thinking of but I cannot find it. I think there was a later one in the 80's that was more like a modern dragster. A husband and wife were driving it on the streets of California and were rounding a corner. Seems like I remember a blown Hemi, shorter version of a rail and with a wing. The attached photo is of the one Lee is describing.

I'm pretty sure that Sears across the street in the picture is on the corner of Laurel Canyon Blvd. and Victory Blvd. in North Hollywood. The facade is changed. The gas station is gone, but I believe there's a tire place there now.

Well, every time I see that picture it reminds me that I did actually lay eyes on the station wagon that is in that picture. It was in a building out in Riverside, CA. It still had the same plates on it too.

No, I didn't have a camera with me and the guy told my friend not to take any. There was a copy of the picture leaning up against the car. For the life of me I can't remember exactly where it was. Does somebody have a time machine?
