That's the car! It was called Village Standard then, on the corner of Greenleaf & Busse rd. in Elk Grove Village Illinois. I have been working there since Jan. of 1972.

I changed the name to Bill's Village Marathon when I purchased it in 1985, and changed gas suppliers to Marathon.

Did you live or work in the area? rsatz28? Rob Satzke owner of Quality Towing back in the day by chance?

Bill,

Right family, but my older brother started/owned Quality. We moved to EG in 68, and my Dad still lives by the HS. You most likely know my Dad. He was the licensing officer for the village for about 10 yrs, before he retired 5-6 yrs ago

I remember your Hemi RR sitting in the corner @ the Standard Station like it was yesterday. My friends and I would comment about "that Hemi" that we would see as we drove around the EG.

I had a 68 400 Dark Green Firebird from 73 to 79, and a friend had a dark green 383 Super Bee & another friend had a 383 RR.

Rob
