Kind of sad that this is all that's left of the Cucamonga Super Service Station.

ETA: and there's an office building where "Brick's" used to be on 6th Ave. NYC.

Look at the sheer number of cars in the pic of the big Goodyear tyre place (22nd pic)!! I doubt a picture of evn the busiest parts of London/Manchester/Brimingham would show that many in the 20s/30s.

EagainTA. The pic of Bing's Speed Shop is really cool, too: http://windsor.towns.pressdemocrat.com/2011/05/new...

Ed 'Bing' Bingelli was a Hot Rod legend.
