The Nebraska Route 6 Tourist Association wants travelers to stop at the Filling Station Restorations on Saunders Avenue in the heart of Sutton. Sutton, population 8,081, is located in the southeastern part of the state and is where I-80, US-81 and US-6 intersect.
The Filling Station started out as Chris Lieb's private workshop where he restored antique cars. It didn't take long to outgrow his garage and when a building at 120 S. Saunders Avenue became available, he and his wife Barb bought it.
The back 2/3rds is full of his restoration area. The front was originally planned for his cars, but now it is becoming a Roadie-Paradise with murals painted by Carrie Bergen and other road items.
It is not open to the public yet, however, but plans are in place for it to be soon.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
