I'm in LA for the 80th anniversary of the '32 Ford at the Petersen museum. Thought you guys would like this shot of an old station at the corner of Highland and Willoughby.

That is very neat. Thanks for the pics. I wonder when it went from Gilmore to Texaco? I also wonder if the corporate side of Texaco helped "redesign" the building or if the new owner just did it on his own.

Yes, if not, at least sell it so someone could dismantle it and move it to another location.
