I am looking to buy a Cities Service metal filling station from the mid-late 1950s, like the one I had as a kid. Remember that it had a green base, white plastic accessories and doors that raised. Any help with this or do you know of a potential source to find this item. Thanks to anyone who can help.

Tin toy gas stations come up on eBay regularly, not necessarily a Cities Service branded station. That could take some patient searching.
You could use the eBay form at the bottom of this page to search for "cities service toy" that would return diecast trucks and some other related stuff, but it may show what you want over time if you are patient.
You might want to check with Wes Nilson of Indiana. He deals in old toy gas stations and always has some when I see him at swap meets. His phone is 219-872-8004. Don't have an email for him, sorry.
