I checked it and also checked it on the internet. 4 different places confirmed it. It's on the corner of Stone and Glenn St. but the address is 2831 N. Stone which is what is posted.
Let me know if you know something different. I have been there before but never technically looked at the address,

The only one I know is on S. Houghton Rd., Tucson. Is this the one the original posting was thinking of? I'd like to know. I go to Hot Rods frequently on Houghton, but wasn't aware of the cruise-in. Let us know on this forum.
Thanks!
Thanks!

The one I am referring to is a relatively new very large establishment. You should check it out.
