    Cool SoCal Merc. Thanks for stopping by
     
  16. Kevin: I lived in the Downey area in the mid 60's and do I remember correctly a drive in called Harvey's broiler? Seems it would have been on maybe Delamo blvd. I lived at Bellflower blvd and south st the way I recall. It has been 48 years ago so I could be not perfectly correct. Anyway, it was a great time to be in so. california, you guys enjoy for the rest of us! Tim

    Well, here I am=Just been kinda busy, had a great time over the LARS week and we definitely did some visiting! Thanx bubba67, was great being able to chat with you at both The broiler and limeworks. Didn't even try to make it out the So Cal Open House.

    I mean when we openned that place as PC3g, we met there every wednesday night got a nice little group together and chowed down on Pizza Hut Pizza or In-N-Out Burgers brought in by guys who hung out. Totally Different now!

    This party starts @ 3pm and supposed to last a couple of hours, Lance Sorchic said the walk was a distance, decided to hang back @ the swap spot with Cook's Machine Works partner Paul while he cooked up some "Paul's Kickin Chicken", The grub was just a little nicer.

    Palle and Jeff, great shots, Tim, thanks for the coverage, J.Fishbeck, Thanx for loading in with the 6, Kent, great seeing you at the swap,sorry that I didn't get back to the broiler on Sat, again, stayed in the swap. We'll see ya twice on your next visit.

    timwhit, yes=Harvey's is Johnie's is Bob's Big Boy Broiler. We survived a partiall demolition and heck, when are you gonna make it back?

    Thanx everyone for making it a great cruise night both last and the weds before.
