An old black and white photo.... I changed the background, colorized the foreground and added the snow.

I remember those days. And the Texaco that I worked at had AAA. Get a call during the storm  for a dead battery, guess who gets nominated to go ? Still have good memories.

I can still remember when full service was actual service at a gas station. Not this garbage we have today........very nice picture, great memories of our past.
Love building rat rods, driving mustangs, and building websites.

The nice part of the day, no c-store. And anywhere from 2 bays to 4. When I worked nights it found my current ride up on the lift. And I bet that I had the cleanest undercarriage, and engine bay. And if mine was not up in the air a friends was there. Oh how I would go back to that time if offered, the 60's...
