gas stations from yesteryear

[Dinorx7]

Is there a place to purchase those in hi res they would look great in the office of my shop.

Looks exactly the same to me. The workshop to the right has been demolished but the main bit with the pumps out front looks exactly the same.

I didn't know if he was referring to the lack of mountains in the modern picture, but they're probably masked by fog.

The one with Escondido Bowl: both stations are still there although modernized at the corner of Broadway and Mission. The bowling alley closed years ago.,.,.and I swear thats an old family friend in the green dodge pickup in the background (same truck anyways). Thanks Breeze, pretty cool stuff

One of those garages is still standing on the old Route 66 in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. I grew up in the area and was surprised to see the picture of it when I scrolled down. It only took a few seconds to find out more about it. (I had totally forgotten about it.) Apparently there is a local restoration effort. I wish them a great deal of luck.

Yup, that's the one. Near the corner of Foothill and Archibald on old Route 66.
