I have a Veltex gas station patch that long time residents of Santa Maria might remember. It was my father station from in the 50's until 1961. it was replaced by a Shell station. even John Madden used to buy his gas there
this morning we found a wild turkey walking up our driveway.
this sign I have in decal form. their very old and yellowing. old time racers will  remember this.
