Hollywood is the appropriate name for this wonderfully glamorous red Bugeye! It came to San Francisco in 1959 and spent over 20 years in Pebble Beach on the Monterey Peninsula. After sitting dormant for a number of years it was put up for sale and an adventurous man who recently moved from Chicago to Hollywood bought it. He asked the original owner if he thought it would make the trip back to Los Angeles area, the owner said don't know why not, it runs great.
