    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    It's been a long time since I done a photo dump....so here is a fresh batch of pics. Hard ro believe this will be my 8th year owning the building. I can honestly say I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but it's been an enjoyable journey.

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    All are safe, Thanks for thinking of us. Its a very unfortunate situation. I happened to be driving by the area as it was unfolding, as soon as I seen kids running to the neighboring armory, I knew something bad was happing. I listened to the majority of it unfold on the police scanner before...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    I did pick up this old wood soapbox derby car a few weeks ago. Bit of a winter project, I want to repaint it with a Sinclair HC/Perry Oil Service theme. A couple Mustangs I added to the stable. First was a 2011 Shelby GT500(red) with 5400 miles and then back in August I picked up a new...

    Nope, not a Dodge guy. They were part of a group I opened up the station to.

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Still alive....just really cut back on screen time. Nothing really new around the station...just little things here and there. I still post regularly on Instagram so if you'd like see what's up that's the best place IG: UngerBodyWorks or Perry Oil Service Station.

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Nope your memory serves you well. I've been tinkering with a '51 F1 for awhile. While we were on strike this fall at JD, I was able to spend some time on it. We did get it fired and the 289 broke in. It has moved under its own power (drove it outside for a few pics). I hope to finish it up...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Been working on a little office project the last few months. I've posted on my social media pages about it, but wanted to complete it before posting on here. For quite a while I have wanted to expand the west side of the office and open both sides up to each other. Back in November I finally...

    Sorry I don't. Honestly don't see many of those pumps around here. Might check with Gas Pump Heaven and see if they reproduce it.

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    I had a laugh when I came across the ebay listing for this sign...of course it was found in a long forgotten estate. If you are going to rip off the name at least make it believable :lol: .

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    A car buddy from about an hour away does a little Sunday car cruise every year and asked if it would be alright if they stopped by the station for a few pics. Of course I said they were more than welcome and offered to open it up for the group. The blue 28 Model A roadster pickup is his...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Thank you, yes this was the first metal type roof I've done. I watched a few youtube videos for install tips and the manufacturer had pretty detailed installation instructions available, I was originally planning to hire this job out, but either kept getting the run around from contractors or...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Yes they are a steel shingle that is coated. Each one is approximately 12 inches tall and 52 inches long. They lock into a special starter strip on the first course then onto the lower course after that. All the screw fasteners are concealed by the next course above it. You can see how they...

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Last summer was a tad slower, but never really stopped. This summer has been busier than ever. I'm noticing lots of out of state plates. It has been back to business as usual for quite a while around here.

    1935 Gas Station Resurrection

    Just finished up a pretty big project at the station. For the last few years I had a small, but irritating "sometimes" leak in the office roof. It was in the area not seen by the public and conditions had to be just right for it to leak. I looked, but never could find where it was getting at so...

    Yes, it gets stood on, sat on, and probably jumped on from time to time. Just wanted to make sure it has no way to.flex We barely got enough to cover the grass.
