I was telling my young children about this a few weeks ago, about how when I was their age, dad would pull into a station and crank the window open, and say "fill "er up" when the man or teenager in uniform came to the window. As kids, we watched the window cleaning, which wasn"t just a squeegee, but towels were used too. The worker opened the hood using the latch in the grille.

There would be a metal cabinet nearby with Anco wiper blades. Sometimes the man would tell you that you"d better replace that radiator hose soon. And when you pulled into the gas station in the first place, you"d drive over the black hoses that made the bell in the garage go "ding ding."
