Jim's Citgo - - - Corner of Talmadge Ave. & Tea Street


How many of you remember Jim's Citgo? A good friend of mine of which I will just list his first name here (Papo) use to work there during the 60's. You might remember his Orange Plymouth RoadRunner always parked there. If I am correct it was a '71. Back in the day places like Jim's Citgo use to give out a free Drinking Glass for any purchase of gas made at about 36 cents a gallon if not cheaper. biggrin

Papo's car looked similiar to the one pictured below if that will ring a bell for anyone. Trust me you couldn't drive by the place and miss it. It was a really nice car if you were in to muscle cars back in the day.  Probably worth a lot of money today to who ever has it now.
