Very cool Scott. I've driven by Cadillac Jack's a billion times and never looked around it.

Thanks for the awesome pictures! If you Google "Live Search Map" and search for "Pink Motel Sun Valley CA." you can see around 70 old cars parked in a lot behind the Motel.

That's where I was told the owner keeps has his shop for his collection. I like the pool looks like a big fish. It's been empty for years.

Could be a great topic of a future episode.......the old hang-outs of SoCal.

I'd watch.......

Memory Lane is in Wilmington jammed between a refinery the RR tracks going to the harbor. About 40 minutes away.

Oh yeah, us Angelenos don't talk how far away something is in mileage; we talk in how far away in time we spend sitting in traffic.

If DF and Chad are going to Pomona, they may already be in bed. Chad lives like 15 minutes away from there. DF is more like 45 minute drive.

Funny you say that. When the hair guy got there he asked the one of the make up girls if this was a porn shoot. The producer from Entertainment Weekly wasn't pleased.

Re: A little more of Americana in the Valley

Great looking stuff!!
Like eveyone else has said, need to get out there for a sightseeing trip sometime soon.

Are you sure that wasn't another kind of movie with a name like Whitney Cummings??
