I'm passing along this message and photo from Charles Barnett:

"In Riverside Calif is an interesting rehab of an old abandoned gas station. I feel that it is rather unique.
It has been converted into a fast food restaurant specializing in Tacos.
Perhaps you can find use for it on your web site.
I beleive that it is one night a week that there is an "old car meet" at the location when local car buffs bring in their cars.
Earlier today I photographed it with my digital camera and am sending it to you as a ,jpg attachment.
From a 75 year old who has first hand memories of the old-time gas stations."



Thanks, Charles! I'm sure our viewers will like it too.

Pretty cool that they've got pumps and globes, too! Most old gas stations that I've seen converted to restaurants are attempts to hide the building's original purpose. This is refreshing...
