It will certainly catch your eye. A 2 stiory Dinosaur sits along side the US 19 in Spring Hill Florida and now houses Harolds Auto Service. I stopped and went inside to find out about the building. No one seems to know when it was built. Harold's has been in the biulding since 1977. Before that time the building was a Sinclair Service Station. "Put a dinosaur in your tank."

An old Chevrolet Wrecker probably driven by Wayne and his sons in the early 70's. Knowing them, it probably still runs like a charm.

I seem to have had some kind of fascination for covered cars when in New York. This was just off Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn.
Taken with a Canon Elph Digital using the toy camera effect. This effect looks more like film than the toy camera effects I've seen on other digital cameras. The heavy vignette makes them look like silent movie stills - except in color. The fact that I can zoom in is nice. My film toy cameras are all wide angle fixed focus. So it's hard to go in close.
I took these 3 photos at an Auto Repair/Used Car Lot on the Service Road of US Route 19 Southbound in Clearwater, Florida on August 26, 2015 with my Panasonic DMC-FZ200 Digital Camera. This Photo shows a Seagrave Fire Truck that once belonged to the Stockton/Lanier Fire Department.

I took this photo some time ago for the arrow and the minimalist nature. Today I decided to find it on the Internet and there is a decent website. So I go to global Earth and the business is buried in trees on an acreage off the road.
New wrecks get a once over by an insurance adjuster before any work can be done.
Some will live to wreck another day, and others will roll no more.

This car repairer is in the beautiful and arty town of Hanapepe, Kauai.
I have dramatically increased the contrast etc to accentuate the Kauai light and the uniqueness of this thriving garage.
During my visits to the Olive Branch Sonic, I've discovered this rare jewel very close to downtown, not far from the Sonic. Behold, a very old-school Chevron station that still has service bays instead of beer coolers! (flic.kr/p/oiRaNH) The assessor's site shows a 1970 build date, and local ownership. Of course it has updated signage, canopies, and ultra-mod looking pumps, but the building still looks largely original Chevron. All in all, it still has a very vintage feel to it.

Looking for even more Route 66? Check out multiple galleries here:
Interparts of Tulsa is an auto mechanic located on the 11th St. alignment of Route 66. While the neon sign is not one of the oldest along the route, it's still been there about 40 years.
Yea per the pictures on the Wikipedia article about the Cadillac Seville it's a "first generation" Seville, meaning model years '76-'79.
This particular instance of "the comfort of luxury" is an old comfort of midsize luxury!
