Unusual Gas stations

People ask me about the blogs I put together, I know this is not about cafe Racers but hey- we all need to get gas, so I thought I would add a few pics of a cool collection of shots of old gas stations.

I have been to the Oregon Bomber one and loved it as I always wanted to check that out as a kid, thought you would get a kick out of seeing these as I did. Enjoy!
