Perhaps the most desirable Texaco premium of all time is the BuddyL gas station – a masterpiece of detail and realism. There were two versions. The second version usedB.F. Goodrich window signs.
The pumps and air dispenser often have broken hoses. These survived intact. Nice pump labels!
The roll-up doors and the wide open back wall allowed for easy access to the interior.
Very important – especially to the ladies and cross-country travelers.
You could pick out a new set of tires on your way to the rest rooms. Very handy.
Accessorizing
It’s almost impossible to resist adding some extra detail to this already impressive station.
The ever present Coca-Cola machine supplied workers and travelers alike with refreshment.
Trust your car to the man with the star. The 1959 Ford station wagon is by Product Miniature.
Notice the attendant out front. He’s carrying a floor jack! Not for the feint of heart.
A cluttered workbench is in contrast to the immaculately clean floor.
Every station needs a nifty "parts-getter" pick-up such as this 1940 Ford.
