On Friday Feb 6th, we were discussing the old FINA station on Tecumseh Rd. when Terry pointed me towards the station above on Seminole. I’ve probably driven past it hundreds of times over the years without ever noticing it.
The windows are tinted, and there are a few other alterations, but it’s pretty much all there. However the Tecumseh Rd. location is still the best preserved one I’ve seen. There’s another one on Tecumseh & Marentette, and the round part of one on Howard is built into a strip mall… Any others I’ve missed around town? Any in the county anywhere?

The only one out in the county that I know of is located on the eastern edge of Harrow on County Road 20. It was Bill's Fina and then went through many hands with various businesses. It is now a tractor dealership of sorts.
Fina..l
One on the west end of Leamington near the hospital I believe that now sells fireplaces.
The old FINA station on Howard Avenue is still standing believe it or not. It was converted into a strip mall about twenty years ago.
Hey Andrew just wanted to say congrats on the article in the paper.
There used to be one on Ottawa Street.
I think it was Evoy's and it was opened in 1969.
