I finally learned of a model T museum that has been photographed many times but not identified in emails, Near Yuma Arizona is an old gas station / private collection/museum
Steve told me that this was originally a gas station in Holtville Ca, but was bought and moved here
it is North of Yuma, in a small town named Bard. The collection is open for visitors in the cool winter months http://www.dynamitedave.com/places_cloud_museum.html
some good photos I found on Finkenstein.tumblr.com
it might not be easy to see it, but the guy is Steve McQueen getting into the Lotus

self employed on the roadside, but it's better than punching a clock
it's better than a lemonade stand too... people know how that Coke will taste, but not know what your lemonade is going to be like
and this is a portable gas station from the 1920's. Somewhere I posted a photo of a guy wheeling one down a city street and selling a gallon here, a couple there. It's a good idea in my opinion... it brings the convienence factor to buying gas... and not having to pull into a gas station when your car requires it. Imagine if your gas was refilled while you were at work? How nice would that be?

Motalko, a documentary on the old gas stations
the video has used incredible technical means to move through the old photos in a 3 dimensional way
