Prospect Car Owners Association Cruises to Mobil Station

MILLBROOK, NY – Members of the Prospect Car Owners Association took a long Sunday cruise to the retro Mobil gas station here. Owner Rob Cooper welcomed them and opened up the inside of the station for a look-see.

With more than a dozen classic cars in attendance, the gas station’s parking lot took on the appearance of a car show. Joining the fun were a couple of motorcyclists who pulled in. RIDE-CT shot a bit of video and snapped some photos…

Here’s a short video:
