Welcome

Really no reason to remove your post, Rob. The guys will still enjoy seeing the photos! John

Hi, Alan. Maybe the IOWA Department of Revenue is finally just getting around to cross-checking the IOWA GAS vendor list from the year you vended to the sales tax payments they received that same year. Seems like a lot of states are looking to turn over every rock they can to generate more revenue. FYI: It has been standard practice for some years for IG vendors to receive a written warning in their registration packages to remit IOWA sales tax. I believe more recently this "warning" from the IG owners indicates they have to provide registered vendor names and addresses to the IOWA Dept. of Rev. for compliance purposes. It's the same way as things are handled for vendors at swap meets here in Wisconsin. Yet another reduction in profits (5.5%) for vendors. John

Looking to buy Tydol Gasoline "Tales of the Road" posters. Below is an example of one from google. Based on an old post I read there might be up to 12 different versions? I will try to post the ones I have soon. Please let me know if you have any that you might sell. Also, if anyone has any that they dont want to sell I would still love to see the different versions that are out there! Thanks in advance

Hi, Mike. As you so aptly stated, "but it is what it is, right?". Yes, I guess we need to be realistic...but, at least you and I (and others here) don't have change and conform to this evolution in our society. We can still embrace the old "be true to yourself" concept, which I'm sure you do. Take care. John

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a 5 gallon Sinclair can that is round. Preferably a higher grade condition because I have a really nice original cardboard box for it. Inside the box is a circular pattern where it sat so that's why I know it was round and not square. If you have something decent, please contact me and I'll be at CTO next month set up next to the Schmidt's German food truck over on the curb. Text or call Goober @ 330-428-1125.

Kind Regards,
Goober

Beautiful work!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Thank you

Wayne 60 gas pump site glass nut removal tool. 1/4” thick steel by 17” in length. There is a slight offset between the head and handle meaning no more contact with painted surfaces when removing or installing the site glass nuts. Handle is tapered to allow a cheater pipe if necessary. These are $95.00 each shipped anywhere in the United States, or $75.00 each picked up at any show that I’m attending! Call or text. 814-671-9574

Very cool!
This made my must check out list next time I'm in the GTA

I'm jealous!
I seen one of these fairly recently at auction (may have been one of the recent Shakelton ones from Southern Ontario) and I am pretty sure it hit the 300 mark.
They aren't common around eastern Ontario or atleast i haven't seen any come up at all.

To the top possible delivery Monroe Washington swap meet this weekend 17th/18

I picked up this 1951 International tanker truck on Friday, and I'm looking for a matching keyhole sign like I have on the door, and 2 sets of the white curved porcelain letters that spell "Texaco" for the sides of the tank. I'd also love to find a set of the "Tour with Texaco" letters for the back. Patina letters and sign are perfectly fine, as I'm going to leave the exterior pretty much alone on this. Thank you in advance!
