Yea. thats my Grandpops and I am sorry that it wasn't his car. I don't know the whole story behind it but I am sure it was a good one. I also love that pic of the grease pit. I am having it blown up and framed to hang in my home. I think it is a work of art even if it didn't have my grandfather in it. Almost Rockwellian.

The station was located at 4501 N. Clark St Chicago, IL. It started out as a Standard then became the Sunnyside Clark. I believe the building is still there but it is no longer a gas station. He got fed up with the snow in 68 and moved to Orlando and opened a station there until he retired. I just started an MSNgroup that I will be posting a lot of the old pics from my grandfather's scrapbook. I only have a few of them on there now. Feel free to stop in for a fill up on nostalgia. Ole' s gas station

It looks does look similar to the Stevens. Note the swooping cowl up to the windshield a 1913 StevensDuryea and another

I wonder if this has anything to do with Ford's inability to get the GT40 name back from the company that took over the rights to the name?

That is great. Thank you for the info so far... If anyone can narrow it down closer, it would be appreciated.

I was recently given a photo album that my deceased grandmother put together of my deceased grandfathers career in the gas station business. There are a lot of great pictures from the 40's through the 70's but there is one pic that caught my eye because my car knowledge doesn't go back in history as far as needed to identify what kind it is. Can you take a look? Pic
