Matawan, NJ
This former Gulf station last housed OK Sales & Service. The pumps had been removed. The building has been vacant since at least 2017. By 2019, the property was surrounded by chain link fencing. It was gone by 2021.

Gulf station [gone]
Whitehouse, NJ
Gulf station [gone]
Parsippany, NJ
This Gulf station sign in Whitehouse stands next to a still-operating Gulf station. In 2009, this sign appeared to have been recently refurbished. It was lit at night. By 2017, the Gulf station was still there but the sign was gone. For more, see this website.

This Gulf station in Parsippany was still open when this photo was taken in 2011. A modern canopy was installed in front of this office. Originally, there was probably a "Go" and more arrows above the sign like this one. The sign was covered up in 2012. By 2013, the sign was gone and there was a new BP station on the lot.

former Calso station
Teaneck, NJ
This former Calso station now houses Teaneck Ignition Service and still sells gas. The station was built around 1947. In 1958, all Calso stations became Chevron stations. In recent years, this building was painted brown and operated as a Gulf station. Around 1999, the paint was restored to the original porcelain enamel panels. These stations bear a strong resemblance to Mobil "drum" stations. They appear to be a regional design as I have not seen them anywhere else in the country. For more, see these websites: 1 and 2.

Haledon, NJ

This former Calso station in Haledon now houses Zizzo's Auto Service. [map]

Elmwood Park, NJ
This former Calso station in Paterson housed a Valero station until around 2018. It now houses a Phillips 66 station. [map]

former station [gone]
Wayne, NJ
former station
Toms River, NJ
This former station in Wayne was in use as a repair shop when this photo was taken in 2011. This might have been a modified Exxon or Shell station. The building was demolished in 2015.

This former station in Toms River has been abandoned since at least 2008. I don't know what brand was sold here originally. The building housed a Hess station in the 1970s and until it closed. This photo is from 2012. The building is still there and vacant. [map]

former Kern's Sunoco station
Berlin, NJ
Kern's Sunoco opened in the 1950s. The station no longer sold gas but still offered repairs when these photos were taken in 2012. By 2014, the building housed C&M Auto Repairs. The blue and white panels still remain but the Kern's sign has been covered up. [map]
