Fred’s standard Foxholm

In the early 1970s, we used to stop at this gas station on the way to Donny Brook raceway and fill up our motorcycles and paint truck. I believe it was Fred’s standard at the time and he would come out and fill us up but the pumps were even old at that time and only read half the price so he would double the price that it read on the pump.
