I always wondered if they did. This looks like a Pennzoil globe on a pump. Kind of hard to tell but you can clearly see the bell. So did Pennzoil make gasoline? Did they ever have their own stations? Does this globe being on the pump actually signify that this pump is pumping out Pennzoil gasoline?

 I took this picture of a Pennzoil station in Ohio a few years ago. The company I worked for delivered a few Pennzoil stations near Adrian, Michigan & we picked the product up on exchange out of a terminal in Toldeo. Dave

Oh they sure did ! In addition, Pennzoil bought Elk refining, the company behind Keystone gasoline , in West Virginia and extreme Western Virginia . Today, in Roanoke Virginia , Winchester and I think still in Stanton, there are some Pennzoil gas stations . Ed Shaver
see ya on the road folks !

Try this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennzoil I didnt notice if it says in there if Pennzoil refined gas or just sold it. I would think if they refined oil, gas would be a byproduct or is it visa versa.
