That car showroom is super cool!

My parents were in Carlsbad in Nov. but somehow my dad said he missed that car dealership, which is a shame because it's 100% Deco-goodness.

It is cool, Retro Hound. I literally did a double take as we drove by.

Hi Amy - it's right on the major thoroughfare going through Carlsbad, US-285. Isn't that fantastic?! You don't see those every day.
