    This was a drive in on Aurora Ave in Seattle right by Woodland Park Zoo. We used to eat there often. While they were known for their BBQ the fish and chips were excellent as well. As I remember they disappeared mid 90's for an apartment house. They had car hops right up until the very last.

    just sayin'

    The more I see this the more I like it I really like the Delray version in Bombs post... I like the wagon with the two tone my favorite thought definitely the Delray if I still had my 57 210 2dr. sedan I would be building one....Same green paint, wheels would be 56 Buick station wagon rims reversed the old way, rear ones widened an extra inch, wagons have 7"wide rims,using the chev's original centers and dog dish caps painted body color, body would be nosed and decked only, hood sites removed lumps turned into air intakes, fuel injection emblems added to fenders why because under the hood would be a 327/ vintage 8 (short) stack fuel injection 4spd interior stock bench seat notched for shift linkage clearance all in white truck n roll ,real, dark carpet all interior window trim chromed ,vintage sun tach mounted in a 63-4 Pontiac Grand Prix chromed console mounted vacuum gauge cup....Wow..Sorry I got stuck in my own wet dream.. I was just saying cool car...
