What I liked most was how simple the instructions were. Easy to follow. Could be assembled in a weekend but I chose to spend a couple hours a day for 2 weeks. The signs on the canopy posts were a challenge to attach after the canopy was assembled to the base. I'd recommend sticking the signs on the support posts before attaching the canopy to the base.

I am pleased with this gas station; however, it does have problems. First, the gas pumps included were unusable forcing me to buy a set from another vendor. Secondly, the uprights that support the canopy over the pumps only connect in a very tiny spot. This makes the canopy unstable. The corners of the building are not beveled and no trim is supplied to hide the joint seams. With some careful sanding and a little putty and paint, I was able to hide the seams at the corner of the building. If you want to light the gas island under the canopy, I solved it this way: I used two z scale street lights side by side in the middle of the island. I settled them all the way through the sub-base, then, when the canopy was set as well as it could be, I put glue on top of the lights, then pulled them up to adhere to the bottom of the canopy. In spite of all this, it really looks good. Useable accents were two billboards, a very nice Coke machine, a table for the inside and the wonderful HUDSON sign on the roof.
