Renewable energies are the order of the day and on the agenda of nations. Are electric vehicles here to stay? Are they less polluting? The purpose of this publication is not to reflect on the subject. It's about some iconic brands of gasoline. I found these relics in a restaurant in Coimbra called Brunn's Diner, all dedicated to vintage and 50s American culture.
