The cost of the digital set up is causing a lot of small town cinemas to close. My small town cinema closed last year. I found out yesterday that a nearby small town's cinema just closed. It has the coolest marque, while driving by it yesterday I wondered if I could convince someone to put up a period correct movie for my '66 300, for a photo op in front of the car.

I then had an epiphany, I can't be alone, who wouldn't want to park their car outside of a cool marque, lit up at night, for a photo with a period correct movie on the board.

First I hope someone decides to buy this old cinema, because I would like to coordinate this with a summer cruise-in they every year. It could be used as a fund raiser to support the old cinema. I would pay good money for the opportunity, and the cause.


What would your movie be? Mine would be the Good the Bad and the Ugly.

A friend and myself saw the movie one evening and the next day we were on the road .... hitch hiking to New Orleans to the Marti Gra's.

The movie also lead to acquiring my 1st Harley, A 57 Panhead chopper.
