I bought this old Koolmotor display rack from another Old Gasser on ebay, just before Iowa Gas last year and was able to pick it up at the Iowa show. Many people came by and asked if it was for sale and I had to turn down a couple of very good offers on it. I neglected to take any pictures of it when I received it, but the paint was pretty bad and it really needed restoration! It was completely ready for reassembly about the time I had my knee operation, so it got sidelined until I could finally get around the shop fairly well. I just finished putting it back together yesterday and thought I'd share a few photos of it. Its made to have a piece of glass on each side and any contents would be put in thru the side door. Glass installation would be very easy but I'm not sure if I want to put it back in?? Maybe plexiglass?? Anyway, I need to start putting all of my excess Cities Service cans into it. Should make a nice display case! Enjoy!! KEVIN PS--Graphics are by T-WAY's

Mick--You might be right! I can always take the glass back out if I don't like it!

Does it have any stamping or ?? to tie it with Cities Service? Think I've seen that rack before with another brand on it, maybe Whiz.
