I was working with old trucks and tractors with just a little gas and oil stuff around the shop until I got a couple of pumps to round out the display so to speak.I did then and still do have several pieces of OLD woodworking and shop machinery around the place.
Guys coming in to look at the trucks and tractors kept saying things like,"you have all kinds of old iron around here".The name seemed appropriate so I had some Old Iron Farm and Gas signs made for the shop.When I joined Oldgas I just stayed with it because a lot of guys around here recognize the handle.
Wendell.There,this time I remembered to use my name.LOL.

I chose mine because it is of me and my father(deceased)with an old Fry pump that we hauled off a farm in south Alabama. He was a sport(along with my mother). Both got sick around the same time(cancer), but died 17 months apart. It was a hell of a time...

My mother put the name on a pair of overalls I would wear when I first starting working on cars in high school. The avitar was choosen by my daughter. That's her dog and a street rod I built from an F100 that I've owned since 1981.
