Old news buddy! This thread isn't about the demolition anymore! Now it's a celebration of the return of a historical, car paradise! Don't regress...Move on!

Hope you got a couple days...


Here's it in a nutshell- It was torn down, city blocked any more demolition for a year, concerned citizens and hot rodders banded together, had cruises, raised money and awareness, went to town hall meetings, started posts on hot rod boards, found a business owner/restaurantor to invest in it, city put up funds, ground was broken, construction ensued and, bingo! It's openning OCT 19th, preserved back tot he way it was in 1958 (with concessions for safety of course)

Now your caught up. Cruise in to the car hop for a burger when your in town...

The neon Bob's disk is UP! Our friend/manager Joe Becker just sent me a photo. I'm forwarding it over to Mazooma now (thanks for always posting for me, Doug).

I'll be signing off now, as I'm having major back surgery this Monday. Have fun and keep me posted on all the excitement, everyone.

Opening day is...

Thanks for the update and the pictures.
boy has it come a long way since i was there a month ago.

Guess I picked the "wrong" time to visit the US when I see these pictures.

Well done the all concerned - Adriene, Kevin, and of course Jim who put his money up for this to come this point.

Kevin sent me that daytime photo to my phone, when I was stuck @ Work stockin parts on shelves. Made me hunger for a burger big-time. This one he just-now sent me makes me want a chocolate milkshake. With a burger. And friends. Just amazing to see this become a reality! Just amazing, and inspiring.

+1 Best of luck with your back surgery Adrienne - you have been such a big part of this, it would be a shame if you missed the opening.

Bobs Big Boy Broiler (u-m-m-m-m, BBBB ? ) works for me and looks great too! And it has a parking lot now also. Just seeing the Broiler coming back to life gives life to us all. Wish I could join you on the 19th but I will definitely be with you in spirit! Have a cherry coke for me.

Adriene, you never mentioned the surgery a couple of weeks ago. Please take care and good wishes for a fast and complete recovery.

New friends...............

Burly and Pat

ps My 91 year old mom reviewed the new SoCal Eatery publication and enjoyed making a list of all the places we enjoyed, especially the photos and reference to Cliftons which we would visit during a trip into L.A.for shopping and the dentist on the Red Car trolleys. No malls in Norwalk way back when.
