    Now here is a view I miss. Steering wheel in hand, Zoe sitting next to me, and the open road in front of us. :)

    I do like that the architect incorporated the style of the dealership into the new building. But I still miss the old showroom.

    Looks like me with my grandfather practicing my driving in his year old 1954 blue Chevy 150 4-door. I was doing stop and go take offs on the other side of town with the three speed tranny and we were headed for the Shell filling station. It must have been a Saturday morning because I wasn't in school.
    Anyway that's how I remember it. :yahoo:

    I recognized this as somewhere in Hollywood, Ca. (noticed 'KFWB' sign, which was a late 50's - early 60's Rock & Roll station. Still on-air but it's all-news' now....) Did a little research to find out you are Westbound on Hollywood Bl, approaching Cahuenga Bl. (a mile or so south of the Hollywood Bowl). Here's a Google Earth image of that same intersection today:
