Man, I can't believe it, Are you going to the people who hold the paper on this country again? Tell the boss that you'll just come to the SGV. There are plenty of them here with businesses that don't make sense. I am sorry that you aren't dong to make it . Don't worry we'll have you at the fundraiser.

It will be fixed soon, 5 mos is a short time to wait compared to what we were up against when I initially started this post nearly 2 yrs ago.
I can't wait till the day that we open it for the 1st time in 8 1/2 yrs. It has been a hard fight for the The Friends of Johnie's,Modern Comittee,Coalition to Save Harvey's Broiler and all of the Rod & Custom people that have been here for all of these years. Everyone here will be able to enjoy this great place once again. When it opens,bring the wives,girlfriends,kids/grandkids,friends have a great time .

I am up for meeting up with people at Vets. I live only a couple minutes from there. Dont think I will be at the meet but would like to cruise up with people. Just need to know when and where you all want to meet.

I remember Lee and his turquise ElCamino. If you remember,the guys moved over to the Olive Garden,next to the Broadway in Stonewood for a while.

Hey Kevin,
The ownership of Frisco's Downey changed hands in 2008. It's still in their name, but run by different family member. The wednesday night cruize was doing well until the shut-down for the remodel and change of ownership. It's than that the trouble began.....The City of Downey shut down the cruize for no permit for music, or "games of contest". One more cruize was permited as a fund raiser for some "childs medical care org.", after that the city kicked the chair out from under Frisco. I still haven't got the true story on what was said, but the City ain't happy with the new owner deal! That's why I mentioned in the other post about the city signing off on "your" cruize, before the shit hits the prop. Swankey Devils C.C. "Meanwhile, back aboard The Tainted Pork' |

We always tell the city about the cruises and they've even attended,but these are city council members and other city employees. It sounds to me like someone pissed off a code efforcement officer. I was there at Friscos back in the day when Robt in his Stmroln 41 Willys Pickup and squared off against a Vette or something like that right in front of the place. The people blocked traffic on both ends and lots of noise was made. I remember the next week, The town of Cops and Stops lived up to its name!
It's funny how things change. The Friends of Johnie's and the Mod Com couldn't get a code enforcement officer out fast enough to halt the Illegal Demo! It took 2-1/2 hrs to get a cop to stop the equipment and funny how the hired help scattered like the rats they were when the cops and a code efforcement officer asked to see their demo permit. I'm glad that the former owners are no longer there. I hope this family member doesn't throw in the towel If he truly believes in his restaurant, tell him to stick with it. I apologize for the rant above(post #814), but it happened and is now history. I did see that something was going on with the location a few months back,but had no idea an ownership change occured. This is the 1st that I heard of it. I wish them well then.

Well, I'm going to beat Kevin to saying a big thanks is owed to Jim Louder for his vision and commitment to this. He has the faith to put real money in this. Thanks Jim and Kevin for keeping on.
