Re: Adventure Car Hop



It seems we still haven't nailed down the exact location of Adventure
Car Hop but here's something to look for:  a television series called
"Wheels" about the history of the automobile in the U.S.  I forget when
this originally aired but it turned up again last year on WGBX-TV (oops,
of course I meant 'GBH-44) and New Hampshire Public Television.  One of
the episodes was devoted to diners, drive-in theaters, and...Adventure
Car Hop!  Arnie Ginsberg was interviewed (if I remember correctly) and
so was a woman who used to be one of the car hops.  I'm 75 percent
certain that this segment closed with a shot of where the drive-in once
stood...now a parking lot.
