The Essex House in West Orange, NJ is going to be torn down and replaced with a medical office building. So, the Hopedale is up for sale again and this time it has to go somewhere else or go to scrap.

JZ - Might be time to put that Geo Metro up for auction on EBay and clear some space in your back yard. I’m sure the wife will understand....

" When Rod Keller established the venue, he did not cut any additional doorways in the side of the car where it abuts the building, but he did gut the car's kitchen to make a room for guests to be greeted and await seating. There was a water leak that damaged the woodwork inside where it adjoins the building but the owners had it repaired. The coupler and draftgear on the vestibule end were removed in order to have the diaphram make contact with the wall and it was on the ground underneath it for years but was not there when my wife and I dined there four years ago. The car is on its original trucks and most, if not all, of the original equipment is still on the underbody. "
