    That was a fun tour, thanks for posting. It makes me wonder why somebody would just drive around filming everything and nothing in particular. Sure puts an historical context on things though.

    I noticed a bunch of cars parked behind Grizzly's Tap Bar for an afternoon
    At the 4 minute mark is appeared to be shot along Route 66 in the area past Pomona, before San Bernardino, in the Upland and Cucamonga (as it was known then) area as it appears to be the San Bernardino's in the back ground, could be wrong

    Very interesting to watch and try to match it with current Los Angeles. It really looks beautiful here.

    That said, 60 frames per second sure looks weird. I guess all those years of cinema at 24 frames per second have messed up my head.
