This is great news! Every time that I'm in Huntington and getting ready to pass that station, I always expect to find a vacant lot. I've watched it since my college days in the early 70's and it has slowly deteriorated over the years. Great to see it is finally being preserved.

FWIW, around 1971-2 there was a 30-31 Coupe body sitting in an alley a few blocks west of that old station (closer to 3rd Avenue and probably 28th Street). It had been a dirt track stocker and was painted pink. It was pretty "used-up" and I often wondered what happened to it. Anyone else remember the car?
