Pretty much a typical 1970's drive-in feature with cute girls,cool cars,good music and some nudity. A foxy girl's uncle gets sick so she gets her hot girlfriends to help her run his gas station in half cut t-shirts and short shorts. The station starts doing well so naturally the mob run gas station across the street doesn't like this at all and hijinks ensue. If you enjoy these kinds of films this one is worth watching.Not much humor but the acting is better than most these type of films and its very watchable.
Gas was .79 cents a gallon in this film,which along with the girls and the cars really makes me long for the 70's.

How can you not love a disco teen exploitation film about five girls running a gas station - and it's a MUSICAL to boot! The songs are ridiculous and the plot is too, but it's not so predictable that there aren't a few amusing moments. I've seen bigger mainstream pictures with lots of critical acclaim that were complete crud - at least this can top the best of the worst.
I was 14 and lived down the street from where this was filmed. I used to walk by the filming everyday on my way home from school. The actors (yes ,Kirsten) were very cool and took the time to talk to the local kids. In fact, Kirsten told me that the name under consideration was Super Duper Garage at the time. The Pyramid station across the street was actually built just for the film. They built it and tore it down right after the filming. The city is actually not Sacramento as is thanked in the credits, but Del Paso Heights. The station is located on the corner of Arcade Blvd and Marysville Blvd. The scene where they ride the motorcycles down the street was filmed farther down the same street the station is on near where it crosses El Camino Blvd. Overall it is a pretty crappy film (4), but for those that live by the shooting location it is now the only and probably will always be the only movie ever shot in the city. Nostalgic to say the least (9). Good times.
Plot-- a bunch of sexy gals, boyfriends and a cycle gang take over a failing gas station and run competition against the powerful station owner across the street. So guess who's got the advantage.
Too bad my highschool graduation wasn't like the movie's dress-dropping ceremony. Then maybe I wouldn't have had to get drunk after the long boring speeches. And, oh wow, what a great bunch of gas station cuties whose tops sort of come and go, while the shorts cling tighter than their shapely skins. And guess who stands out front the station to get drivers' attention-- I'll be pulling in any second now. OK, the flick's not exactly a cerebral exercise, but I do like the way the youngsters unite to make a go of their gas pump enterprise, sort of like talent at the grassroots . Plus, it ain't easy since they're up against faceless big business pulling strings behind the station across the street. And get a load of Mr. Friendly who runs the station across from them. He's about as friendly as a kick in the pants, with a mug ugly ennough to rattle a statue.
Anyway, good to see old timer Huntz Hall picking up a payday after all those years with Leo Gorcey and the Bowery Boys. All in all, the fick could have used tighter editing and snappier direction; nevertheless it's a fun way to pass an evening, especially for the guys. Meanwhile, I'll be checking out my neighborhood for a Joe's where I can at last 'fill 'er up' the way I've always wanted to!

Aside from some gratuitous topless scenes and a few double entendres, Gas Pump Girls is a surprisingly sweet little film about five teenage girls, their boyfriends, and a goofy motorcycle gang taking on the big bad Pyramid Petroleum Company in beautiful downtown Sacramento. The talents of old timers Huntz Hall, Joe E. Ross, and Mike Mazurki are sadly wasted, but the film manages to provide 90 minutes of relatively painless entertainment. Even the wretched original songs work in the post-Grease context of this low budget musical comedy. "Ooo wah ooh wah...ooh wah ooh wah...your mother is an ooo wah" indeed!

- QuizOf the two gas stations at which the movie was shot, the super center gas station no longer exists, and in its location is a recycling center. But the small gas station that played Joe's service station, bizarrely, still remains today [to date, February 2022 - c/- Google Maps), at 3201 Marysville Boulevard, Sacramento, California, USA - and is run-down and decrepant, ironically, like the state of Joe's filling station at the start of the movie.
