Thats was Bernie that had the gas station right next to the Bayonne bridge. We used to buy aviation fuel from him.
The only partnership Ray and I had was Leong and Cook Racing Engines and the race cars.
Ray owned a Fork Lift repair shop in Elizabeth for a while.
Before we became partners. He was partners with George Elliot in a gas station on Hylan Blvd, then a junkyard (chop shop) in Staten Island. That got them a little vacation time.
