Could be 50s!
Dude has the "rebel without a cause" look.
Pumps are too close to each other.
Place could be from someone who enjoyed collecting antiques.
Car looks like a lowered and chopped '36 Ford coupe -- though I'm basing that on my memory of the 1/25 scale AMT model kit. Love the baby moon hub caps on the RF wheel. You could still buy and install those on your car in the mid--70s; I put a set on my Ford Maverick, which (I thought) improved its look immensely.

Amazingly, the Gargoyle is still around -- Mobil uses it as their brand for a line of industrial lubricants just to preserve their control of the trademark. It's a pity they never thought of having it on the roofs of their buildings, but someone thought the Flying Red Horse was less terrifying.
