Very cool place, Jacob. Thank you! I was wondering what happened to miss Belvedere. I followed the story, and was looking forward to the reveal-only to be saddened by the terrible condition she was in. She can't be restored, because there isn't any metal left to repair, but she has been stabilized for posterity. Thanks again!

Linda Thompson was quite well known at time. Other commenters have already mentioned that she was once Elvis Presley's girlfriend and is the ex wife of the former Bruce Jenner, but in addition to those, she was also an actress and model and was regular on the TV show Hee Haw for a number of years. Even though her fame peaked quite a while ago, she I'm still surprised you've never heard of her, Jacob.

Andy Griffith Show mechanic was Gomer Pyle, played by Jim Neighbors. He had a spin off TV show called the Homer Pyle Show, where he enlisted n the USMC. On the Andy Griffith Show his character was replaced by the characters cousin, Goober. Being from Gallo, IN you should know this because Jim Neighbors sang the National Anthem at the Indy 500 every year until his death. Look up him singing to Dream the Impossible Dream! Amazing voice.

4:50- the expression "ride shotgun" which now means to ride in the front seat of a car, cane front the stagecoach days when someone road up front with the driver with a shotgun in his hands to ward off outlaws they very likely would come across on any given trip. The Wells Fargo stages were the most vulnerable to attacks.

Very interesting place. Looks like a neat place to visit. For the James Dean death car,from what rumors I heard that the last owner of the actual car (what was left) was George Barris who ultimately destroyed out of respect for his friend. He never confirmed nor denied it but seeing how he was close to JD and did the paint work for it,I always had a feeling only he knew the truth about it and took it to his grave.

They did use foam bumpers on some cars for a while, I remember it being a pain with some 90s Fords as the outer plastic shell would crack from a minor tap and cost the owner a full bumper replacement to put right (These were Euro Fords, US might have been ok). I saw a news story earlier today where they had taken the upstairs of a 747, the plane Air Force One is based on, to convert into a resturaunt somewhere in the UK, I vaguely remember flyng on one when I was 4 and being mesmirised by going upstairs as those were still the days they let kids see the Cockpit.

One day as he was on a bit of morphine to help with the pain he sang the actual lyrics to the theme song. 20 years later he claims he doesn’t know what we (my mom, sister and I) are talking about 😂 This makes me want to sit in front of the tv and mindlessly watch the antics of the Cartwright family with my dad ❤️
