V&H was on Robinson, right? I always wanted them to installed dual
exhaust on my cars. Dad wouldn't have any part of it. Since I never had
any cash, they never got to do it.

Of course it's only word of mouth about Jesse's not being legitimate.

Don't remember the guy with no legs...did know Jack Patton( little person) and his brother Russell (worked for TG&Y). Jack passed away some time ago. I've often wondered what happened to the chair he built with the pipes and everything that were on it. I remember when they just had a dirt floor and chain hoist...How about you Carlton????you were there with me more than once.

That's AWFUL! I stressed over about 500 colors of blue for my '59
Peugeot.Found this incredibly dark blue and told them that's what I
wanted. I went to pick it up and it was a mess. Nothing like the picture

Hey! My '31 Model A was spray painted by the guy's wife who rebuilt it in
'66. He was out of town and she "did him a favor!" It still has the same
paint :lol2:

Home of the $59.95 wish you hadn't got it paint job.The trick was to do all the body work and taping yourself and only let them shoot the paint.

Have you ever seen me do body work and tape? Besides, those bozo's didn't
know green from red.

I think they had only 3 colors. Krylon red, green and yellow. Of course
they'd use whatever TG&Y had on sale at the time, too... Right Gen64? I'll
bet you sold many cans of spray paint to Sheib...

Do you remember a Mr. LeGrange that worked for "Sheen's?"

Thinking of a few Capitol Hill businesses I didn't see mentioned...

Don't forget TG&Y or the Capitol Hill Ice Cream shop.

What was originally at SW 25th and Hudson? You all know, where the hot
dog cafe, and the home of the very first Southside get together?

I remember a slot car track around '67.

Jandebar's? Or was that NW 10th? Reave's?

There was an optical shop on the south side of SW 29th just east of S. May.
It was Munday-Price Optical. I think they started around 1973.

Does anybody remember that place?
Does anybody know what business was there before them?

Is Coney Island on Harvey or Hudson? At any rate, there was a slot car

The SHEEN DRUG Company (My aunt and Uncle owned it)
Growing up we went to the 16th & Portland location. I went to high school and worked at Skaggs with the pharmacists son (Greg Smith IIRC).


MacArthur Park Raceway
You mean this MacArthur Park Raceway (http://www.macparkraceway.com/)? It has been reopened.

Jandebeur's Honda-Kawasaki was on SW 29th, the House of Kawasaki out at NW 10th & Council is the only one that I knew of on 10th. Our neighborhood bought most of our motorcycles out there and when we started riding we rode on the land on the SW corner of 10th & Council before the subdivision went in out there. We also rode at the north end of Overholser in what is now Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge.

There was a motorcycle shop between N. May and N. Villa on the north side
of the street. It may have been another Jandebeur's.

There was some major 1% biker activity around there in the 60's and 70's.

On NW 10th between May & Villa? About what years? There may have been an independent shop there or maybe a Harley shop. The H-D shop that I remember was Parr's at Melrose & Rockwell during the AMF/H-D years. I also grew up going into the European dealer on MacArthur where Fred Baker Firearms is. I grew up on Kawasaki's but always wanted a Euro bike, well, I have a Triumph now.

From 62 through the early 70's. I can't provide the exact dates.

Hey, don't forget Cycle world on 58th and S. Shields...Owned by Al Levine for some time... Kawasaki was his bike of choice. also, they were new in the market.....

From 62 through the early 70's. I can't provide the exact dates.
Well, that was a bit before my time, my first motorcycle was at age 9, that was 1973.

Hey, 78, if your uncle had a car lot on 29th, I'll bet you knew the Overbays. Johnny, the son of the owner graduated in 62 or 63, has a custom rod shop out in Del City. He had a '40 Ford Coupe while he was at Grant. I don't remember what kind of motor it had in it but I got it up to 110 once while passing a car on a 2 lane bridge. And we both lived to tell about it.

Hey '60...Overbay is still in the Hot Rod business....last time I heard he was still making Louvre's for car hoods etc. Graduated in '62....good guy....

I dropped in on him about a year ago. We had a terrific visit and the shop was busy. His livelyhood is based on nostalgia. We ought to get him in on our nostalgia threads; tell him it is good for business.
