76 For more than 100 years, the 76 brand, with its distinctive ball icon, has been providing high-performance petroleum products and excellent customer service. The origin and heritage of the 76 brand can be traced back to the small town of Santa Paula, CA, where in 1890, Lyman Stewart co-founded the Union Oil Company of California. Today, the 76 Gasoline brand is owned by ConocoPhillips and 76 Quality PROclean Gasoline is sold at more than 2,700 retail fuel sites in the United States.

Union 76. It's a chain of gas stations and truck stops.

You must be seeing something old, because 76 was the official fuel of NASCAR until 2004, when Sunoco took over that honor.

You won't see that anymore. That stood Union 76 fuel, which used to be the official fuel for Nascar, however now it is Sunoco.
