Number 9 allready? Time is flying!

 

6397 Gas N' Wash Express

Description: Released in 1992 and retail price was about $45-50 US dollars. Today can be purchased MISB for about 100 bucks. Part of the classic city Octan line, the set had 458 parts and 3 minifigs. Featuring your standard gas station stuff like gas pumps, a store interior, car wash and vehicles, there was plenty to keep busy with when built.

 

My Take: I enjoyed this set quite a bit when I had it. I had extra vehicles and minifigs so that was always adding to the playability of the set. The overall look of the set is true to a gas station I thought. There are also some parts like extra wheels/carrier and a carjack, so you could also do the mechanic thing. Everybody loves the brush parts and the car wash had plenty of these. Until next week!

I think I had one of those, and probably still do. It's been a while since I used some of those old Octan parts, so it may be time to get them out and build it again.
