  5. Gary, my dad also owned a Chevron station in Santa Paula California. I can remember the first time I was charged for a road map. I pulled into a station in Davis California and asked if I could get a map of the Bay area. He said it would be .50 cents! I thought he was kidding. I think this was about 1968

    Have you ever wondered if your car was in one of these old photos? Wonder if that D-24 club coupe could be the one that now lives with me.

    Maggie I love your pix. Do you know the whereabouts of this place? Looks like where 99 used to split.
