went to an old Gulf station like that in Belpre ohio a few years back that had a going out of business sale.
filled up my suburban with anything still in the GM wrapper.
saw all kinds of Chevey blocks in there,including some Arias pistons for 421 pontiac new in the box from 1970..

Some really great Shell Service Station photos from the early 1960's shown HERE.
You can still hear the Bell dinging as you pull in..

Funny this thread got started. I was converting my mothers vcr tapes of historical archives from the town I grew up in the other day and noticed a couple of the service stations were still around. The Picture I am going to try to attach came off of a tape labled 1937-1940. There are two tapes and both contain about 30 minutes each. The videos just show small town life from that era but it was neat to watch. I can't wait to watch them with my mother as she can fill in the gaps that I dont recognize. Actually saw my Grandfather on a bicycle with my mother and her twin sister riding (one standing on the back and the other on the handlebars) with him.

oh yeah, also shows an old station greasing the underneath of a car and also a body shop painting a fender for someone.
