What's this?

My Dad was the district manager for all of the Exxon Car Centers in VA...


back in the 70's...his office was at the Eastgate Car Center across from the Eastgate Mall on Laburnum and Nine Mile Road.

He gave not only me but all the neighborhood kids hands on GS (General Service) instruction. Very helpful and fun getting dirty and greasy.
