In Spring of 2005 Joe Mirante and Dave Warren donated an original Dodger
car from Whitney's Playland. It had been stored for over four decades
and was fairly battered and bruised. Jim Rose (of Rose Autobody) came
to our rescue.

He spent two months redesigning a new front end for the
car — the original grillwork was totally missing. He also added headlights
and taillights, removed the dents and gave her a brand new coat of shiny
blue paint. He also managed to get a friend to donate brand new upholstery
to make the car look brand new. When children come to
Playland-Not-at-the-Beach, they will be able to sit in the restored
car and have their pictures taken.
