More Americana seen on the side of the road

Hello all out there in HAMB-land. I love all the pictures posted of cars and interesting history. I saw these cars at an old gas station up north in Maine and was able to snap a few shots to share. Thanks to all who post pictures and take the time to help out .. I appreciate it.

 

Bad***! Thanks for sharing.

 

5 sweet projects, and a COOL garage to keep em in.

 

there used to be a 50 Shoebox setting under the awning at an old store here in Douglasville, I know it sat there for over thirty years...the old lady died and who ever got the place sold it... wish I had taken a picture

 

Hey there,
Where in Maine? Im in the midcoast....I like to see that there are fellow Hambers in Maine. The pics are awesome.

 

I am not sure of the town.. but they are near Grand Lake Stream

 

Cool.....its surprising that stuff is still out like that...you would think people would be hounding them to sell.

 

did you happen to take a look inside the building to see if there was more cool stuff?

 

Cool. Those are great pics. i wish we would get more threads like this and less polls.

 

These types of photos are the best. I'd rather look at shots like this than galleries of show cars - regardless of types. Thanks for posting.

 

I bet whats inside the building is just as cool or better than whats sitting outside

 

From the road the building looks like it is filled with cool stuff.. There wasn't anyone around.. so I didn't get too close... I don't like it when people get close to my stuff when I am not around .. so I don't do it to them. I only get up there once a year.. Stuff that has been around for many years has started to disappear so I decided to take pictures in case this stuff goes away.. I have driven past this spot for at least 5 years and it hasn't changed much. I never have much time to dig deeper as it is either on the way to vacation.. can't wait to get there.. or on the way home from vacation.. have to get back quick.

 

^this^

 

Those should be saved. They are cool to look at though.

 

Look through the windows and you can see a Pennzoil sign, and at least 2 other gas pumps in there. The broken window on the left has 3 or 4 old signs patching the missing gl***...

I have some photos that I'll have to add tonight... My work computer is configured kind of weird and I can't upload stuff from a CD.

 

I wonder how long ago that ol ford ran out of gas?

 

I took some pictures of that storefront back in the late 80's,I'll see if I can dig them up,scan them and send you a copy...there was some good "colonial bread" screen doors on that building too

 

totally cool, you never see that stuff unless you get off the freeway and explore.... any more pics??

 

Sweet.

 

That Pontiac wagon looks good...

 

The tall 39 tokheims are very cool. "I have one myself". Did you get any inside pics? Great stuff!

 

that looks bad ***. cool set up. Now the owner just needs to work on some of those bad *** projects hes got
