It was a car-hop drive-in, looks like it was operational as early as the early 50s and by 1969 it had been torn down and a Sambos built there. A friend (born 1959) remembers the place from the mid sixties but said his mom wouldn't let them eat there because the car hops wore hula skirts [ Edited by: MadDogMike 2011-09-11 12:32 ]
