The year was 1974, the country was in the midst of its first gas crisis and the price of gasoline was skyrocketing. Speed limits were soon to be set at 55 M.P.H. nationwide, gas stations were closing and the call went out to develop cars that got better mileage...but what to do with those old gas stations and high-powered muscle cars?

Enter George "Jig" Warren III and Gary "Moe" Meszaros to save the day. Well maybe not necessarily the entire day, but certainly one old gas station and a bunch of muscle cars, by turning the abandoned station into the Quaker Steak & Lube, a "Cook Your Own Steak" restaurant. They gave the cars, which included a 1936 Chevrolet, frozen in time on the original hydraulic grease rack, a loving home. They were so successful that Jig and Moe hired a cook so their customers no longer had to do their own cooking and the menu expanded to include a variety of family friendly foods.

Today, "The Lube" serves over 50 million wings annually, has 16 bottled sauces for retail sale, has won the title of "Best Wings USA," and has over 100 local, national, and international awards for their sauce recipes.
