Fuller's Auto & Gas Museum is located in a 1930's rock gymnasium building located at Broadway and NW 1st in Inola. Out front is an old firetruck, and inside are about twenty vehicles from 1917 to 1953, the private collection of owner, Mike Fuller.
A total of about 145 gasoline pump globes are lit and displayed on shelving along the upper walls. Metal service station signs and other vintage pieces and parts guaranteed to tickle your nostalgia button.
Another room contains a huge collection of Matchbox vehicles as well as vehicle-related ceramic cookie jars, photos, calendars and other items too numerous to mention. Mike Fuller has collected and displayed photos of distant relatives, as well as Harley Davidson paraphernalia. One photo stood out to me shows Mike and his large black dog on his Harley. The caption says he logged 179,000 miles on his bike trips through all of the U.S. including Alaska, plus most of Canada. He says the dog has logged 100,000 of those miles!
This is an unexpected surprise in the small town of Inola, and a trip worth your while.
