Sunday the 11th Cruise to the Broiler SOCAL

Keep 'em coming Bob! This is making my day...Wish I coulda been there.

 

YES! No date yet...

 

saw this on the way. NO,I didn't get the info....

 

After Crazydaddyo cutting everybody off at Firestone(note to self; DON'T let Dan lead the caravan!) We approached Johnnys...

 

My trusty daily driver '34 and the "Bad Bob" Merc at the site of the new Bob's Big Boy...soon to come

Another beautiful day in SoCal...hit 80 here this afternoon and BLUE skies...life is good

 

The old checker board tile in the original diner

 

One great guy..."Chili Phil"

 

Please forgive me if I may have missed this, but... is that Amazing sign going to stay even though this site is becoming a Big Boy? I sure hope it does!

 

The man himself...Cyclone Kevin...the marathon man in the flesh









"Bad Bob"

 

license plate on Cyclone Kevin's Jeep...how's this for dedication???

 

Here's the plan...the artists interpretation for the new Bob's Big Boy...



The macot chubby kid on the original sign will be moved by the entrance to the car hop drive-in driveway. Kev and the new owner (and many others) have gone to great lengths to keep the traditions of the original design while building the new Bob's...quite a fete!

 

Goozgaz and friends were waiting there when we got there...

 

Crazydaddyo and his dad...


RD2NDY...

A menu from the 60's...prices won't be the same, but it will still be a bargain...and the best part is it will be just as tasty as we remember it...














Well, thats it for my pics...a big THANK YOU to Cyclone Kevin for doing the damn near impossible...man, is this going to be great!
We'll see everyone next summer at Bobs Big Boy, car hops and all!!!!

 

One more...Chili Phil (on the right) and Joe Thomas who ran the super-bad "Beaver Hunter" Fuel Altered T roadster that terrorized the drag strips around here in the mid-60's...

 

they opened the gate,and we finally got to pull in and park...

 

I sure hope they stick with the old menu. I miss the brawny beef.

 

Don't really know what this was about. There was a manhole,with this in it...


The sign is now a Landmark...

 

Mazooma, thanks for answering my sign question! That artist rendering looks awesome! I'm glad to see this being done. Thanks to you and Bad Bob for posting your pictures of today's cruise! Be sure that I will be making the trip over from Phoenix to help support the cause when it's up and running!
