A purveyor of car washes is returning a bit of kitsch to business by introducing dinosaur themed washes in South LA, with their second car wash opening at Vermont and Florence in South LA. "The Florence car wash is larger than the first location in Hawthorne and features animatronic dinosaurs, and a wall mural whose tiles were painted by car wash owners and [longtime residents Mr. and Mrs. Windell Whitemore]. According to the car wash company, more themed washes are planned in the next 5 years. [LA Sentinel]
