Seller's Standard Station and Pullman Diner is a historic service station and diner complex located in Morocco, Newton County, Indiana. The Pullman diner was built in 1930, and expanded about 1935 with the service station addition. A two-story service bay was added in 1940, a large room about 1955, and a large drive-in garage in 1966. The original buildings are representative of two vernacular structures with Bungalow / American Craftsman style design elements. The complex provided essential services along the former route of U.S. Route 41.[2]: 4 

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.[1]
