An old station on Route 66 in Tucumcari, New Mexico dressed as a Whiting Bros station.
I don't think this ever was actually a Whiting station. Seems to be a decorative project.
There is also a similar Magnolia, Phillips 66, and Esso station like this in Tucumcari.

who also operate Giant and Mustang, plus a few other minor brands.
These minor brands will eventually become either Giant or Mustang.
