I see a mining dump in the background but lots of mines in WA. Still, having a go at Menzies.

I think you have it.

Looks like it has been returned to a working service station between 2013 when I took the photo and what Google shows for 2019, www.google.com.au/maps/@-29.6918686,121....Uw!2e0!7i3328!8i1664

I found it at 59 Goldfields Highway and I think previously 59 Shenton Street. I do think it's the same servo though. What the hell happened to all the number plates? A Royal Commission is called for. There was a reference to it being a 24hr serve yourself swipe the card thingo.
Reckon I was there late 70's riding an XS1-B, having a holiday from mining towns. Not really successful :S
Anyone have a pic to put up, never took a camera on my travels.
