Beer holder!!, real hard to pump gas(without both hands)on those country back roads, when you only get a couple cars an hour !! I am sure that what it is for...dodogas

Just like that Wayne 72R, I know I have literature on this, I just have to find it. I'll be back as soon as it turns up.

JACK,
Will that be before or after the DART FINIALS?
DICK

I think that was for a window washing spray bottle. or beer like dodo said , them Canadians A,

THE BOX IS A LITTLE ROUGH, BUT NOT HOMEMADE. WHEN OPENED IT HAS A DIVIDER IN THE MIDDLE, MABEY IT WAS AN ASH TRAY FOR THE STATION ATTENDENT WHILE HE WAS PUMPING HIGH OCTANE?? FRANK..

If it has a divider in the middle one side was for ICE!! We Canadians like are beer cold!!!.........RPM

If you boys down south come to Canada to visit, you may wonderwhy all cars and trucks have 6 in long pieces of tubing vertically fastened to the front bumper, it is for cooling beers , EH !! Only in the 9 cold months or the year, and Dwaine note the proper spelling for eh, eh... dodo eh

Thats the central california spelling for eh. Eh ?

It's the first self-serve gas pump. the can on the side is for the money, using the honor system. didn't last long though.

Must be that french tickler all Canadians seam to have stuck in them, tickle ,tickle , tickle , AAAAAA monsewer,

IT'S NOT FOR BEER!! YOU DODO HEADS!! SERIOUSLY, DOES ANYBODY KNOW FOR SURE?? WHERES JACK?? DID HE FALL ASLEEP?? HE SAID HE HAD AN IDEA.. WHERS DWAINE?? WHY DOESN'T HE HAVE EVERYBODY WOUND UP TODAY???? WHERE IS EVERY BODY?? THIS SITE IS DEAD TODAY!! MABEY I WILL POST SOME OF DWAINES E-MAILS , THAT WOULD GET SOME PEOPLE LOOKING AND RESPONDING!! GRAB A COLD ONE AND LETS GET THIS DEAL GOING!!! FRANK..

Man this site is the greatest..i get a message from the computer with the same name as me , telling me to crack a cold one,so I did!! Most educational and entertaining site ...The other Frank in Canada eh

Frank, The little tray was used to hold rags for checking oil. Some gas station atendents were not allowed to put the rags in their pockets because it looked unprofessional. I worked at a Union station and was not allowed to put the rag in my back pocket. Gas Pump Rob
