Waco's Historic Gulf Station - The Gentleman Racer

The best part about road trips are the things you unexpectedly discover along the way. While driving from Waco to look at some properties in the countryside, I spotted this amazingly restored Gulf gas station. It had an old Citroen DS pulled up to the pumps and a few more classic French cars are hidden around back, but no sign that anyone was around. We spent about 30 minutes checking out this amazing man-cave before we headed on down the road, but it was amazing to step back in time for a few moments.

After doing some research it turns out that the gas station is owned by Gary and Randy Balusek, two brothers who restore classic cars and use the old station as their workshop. Read More HERE.
