Route 66, Texaco Filling Station, Foyil, OK

Route 66, Texaco Filling Station, Foyil, OK We are restoring the original Texaco Station located on Route 66 in Foyil, Oklahoma. The building is currently in the process of restoration.

The Foyil Filling Station is a single story 24 ft x 20 ft building with a projecting hipped roof of asphalt shingles which form the porte-cochere over the pump filling area and the exterior walls are covered with a faux brick tin siding. It was initially built in the late 1920’s for the sole purpose of providing fuel and other automobile needs for the local residents in Foyil Oklahoma and for those from out of town traveling Route 66 through Northeastern Oklahoma. The Filling Station sets on a 50-foot wide lot that fronts West onto what once was Chestnut Avenue/Route 66 that was later renamed Andy Payne Boulevard in honor of Foyil native Andrew Hartly Payne who won the Route 66 Great Transcontinental Footrace in 1928. Oklahoma State Highway 66 was relocated approximately 300 feet west in 1962. There are vacant lots on either side of the Filling Station where a house existed on the South side and a mobile home existed on the North side both were recently demolished.

The soffit light holes were not cut in the right location so the holes had to be patched and new ones in the right locations were cut. I just now finished painting the patches. Two steps forward and one step back but it's alright now.

Got this for Christmas. I must have been good this year.
