I have been watching the discussion here for a while and finally decided to register. Iam a used car dealer in Va. I have been collecting Coca Cola for about 25 yrs. Always had a fondness for antomotive and gas and oil but only started collecting it seriously about 5 yrs. ago. I am currently restoring a couple of 36Bs. I have one almost done but I am sure I will need your alls help before it"s done.

Thanks for the welcome. Chris the brand was a tough decision I have an old love for Pure because of it's accociation with NASCAR years ago. My dad was an Atlantic dealer and my wife's father had a Texaco station. Anyway I decided on Texaco because of her.

Carter---You need to do that pump in, what else, Carter Oil. They were a precursor to Esso, Enco and Exxon in Montana. They bought out the Grizzly Brand and I think Powerlube may have owned Carter for a while. (the memory is fading for the day)
