Al's and Son's BBQ in downtown Big Spring has a wonderful 1950s Googie sign, but a more modern blah 1980s building. So how's the food? Can't say. The place was closed the days we were there.
This sign belonged to the old Wagon Wheel Drive-In #1, which location was purchased long ago and the original building demolished.
Wagon Wheel Drive-In #2 survives over at 2010 Scurry St -- see waymark WMJK4H.
