I was having lunch at a local bar the other day and the American Picker's show was on the TV. I saw an old car up on poles and thought I have seen that.Where was it? Then I noticed a Union 76 sign in the background, leaning against a shed.
I then realized that, the other day I had seen this stuff in an auction notice on auctionzip.com,for this coming weekend. The sale had looked interesting so I had thought to go. On top of that there is another sale on the way there that has a few gas pumps. One of the pumps I have seen sell in the past at a different auction several years ago.
To top it off the next episode of the Picker's comes on and there is my friend Thornton {The King of Petro}

Well I went to both auctions and enjoyed the day looking around. I did not buy anything but saw some cool stuff.

The Gilbarco did not sell at the second auction. The reserve was too high. It went high when I saw it sell several years ago. They were wanting to make a profit at what they set the reserve at. They should have let it go because they sure made up for it on a set of oil bottles and the Wayne 70.
