Muscle Car Ranch owner Curtis Hart and Ranch Hand Randy work to install a Phillips 66 sign just before dusk Wednesday evening. The orange and black sign replaces a red and white Phillips 66 sign that was dislodged during a 2013 tornado that hit Chickasha, Hart said. The replacement sign came down as hurricane Camile made landfall in Corpus Christi in 1969. Featuring chart-topping artists and bands from several genres, Hart’s Muscle Car Ranch has held concerts since 1992. Photo by Curtis Awbrey
