The little old gas station, long vacant on the northeast corner of Mountain Road and 12th Street Northwest, was scheduled to be demolished by the end of June. Instead, it will be taken from the site June 16 by the Wheels Museum and stashed in a storage yard.
Wheels has no building yet in which to display its growing collection of transportation-related artifacts, so it's storing items like the gas station here and there around town. The building, when restored, will become part of a Wheels Route 66 historical exhibit.
