the Surf City Garage car collection and incredible collection of signs, gas station stuff, and pertroliana

wow, a Coca Cola delivery bike!

I finally learned of a model T museum that has been photographed many times but not identified in emails, Near Yuma Arizona is an old gas station / private collection/museum

Steve told me that this was originally a gas station in Holtville Ca, but was bought and moved here

it is North of Yuma, in a small town named Bard. The collection is open for visitors in the cool winter months http://www.dynamitedave.com/places_cloud_museum.html

some good photos I found on Finkenstein.tumblr.com

it might not be easy to see it, but the guy is Steve McQueen getting into the Lotus

self employed on the roadside, but it's better than punching a clock

it's better than a lemonade stand too... people know how that Coke will taste, but not know what your lemonade is going to be like

and this is a portable gas station from the 1920's. Somewhere I posted a photo of a guy wheeling one down a city street and selling a gallon here, a couple there. It's a good idea in my opinion... it brings the convienence factor to buying gas... and not having to pull into a gas station when your car requires it. Imagine if your gas was refilled while you were at work? How nice would that be?

Motalko, a documentary on the old gas stations

 the video has used incredible technical means to move through the old photos in a 3 dimensional way

When at Pebble Beach, make friends, you never know where it might lead to, as Claus Muller was delighted to find out, he was invited to tour a private collection of a Maharajah

Above, the collection is partly in a roundhouse, I think it's a great way to access a large collection for a driver, I have no idea if the architect was informed that the display factor would be important

The 1914 Rolls Royce that sparked the tour invitation, was brought to the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours

Above, the original Shell gas station that is inside the palace, as the only gas engine vehicles of the time were owned by the Maharajah. Makes sense!

 While visiting India, the author of the website was also interested in seeing the local repair shops to contrast them with what he is familr with in Germany
