    Yea, that's where Santa Clause lived (no joke) CB Repair Hack. Then one snowy Christmas eve his sleigh caught on fire and mysteriously burn to the ground and that was the end of Santa Clause in Bakersfield. Actually almost a true story. But he had a trailer there that he would charge you to mess up your radio. His (the one he talked on) was modified by Jerrco's north on 99 around Merle Haggard Blvd.

    Looks like someone is building a new T/S there. Last time I went by there they were almost done framing the building. Probably Indians...:oops:

    Last time I was at Bruce's before it disappeared was 97. It was a crap hole with nothing but drugs and prostitutes. You couldn't even sleep there. I drove in, saw what was going on and left.
