While looking at a car last year,the owner mentions he used to work @ a Sunoco Station as a teen...I like Sunoco...He then tells me he saved a few items,including the cement island can display they had,before the dismantle.
We couldn't come to an agreement on the car,so as I'm leaving he asks would I like to see the Sunoco items.
I like Sunoco..
Shows me some nick nacks and oil cans.An hour later I come home with this.






















He had it packed with cans,but not fully.
I added more to fill it up to capacity.
50 cans total..25 a side..I like it.

Isn't that a fire hazard to have that thing in your living room?
