    As teens yall didnt think 32 years would go back so quickly. Although I just turned 16 it seems crazy how we always behaved the same as kids no matter when you were born
    Edit: LA was a warzone at that time. Crazy to see how it looked in person

    Brings back so many memories. I was born and raised for most of my youth at 35th and San Pedro. Right at that freeway entrance where the public storage is now is where my fathers building use to be before he sold the land to them. Then we moved to Rowland heights for 2-3 years and finally ended up in the IE since then.

    Gil, this is the very first of your videos I ever saw. For some reason, this video came up on my recommendations, and because of my interest in Southern California history (note my You-Tube name), I watched it, and I have enjoyed your videos ever since. Thanks for all of your great chronicling of SoCal history! Many of your videos should be sent to a video archive so centuries from now people can see what life here was like.

      @@chriswright8074 No, just people want the "new look", is all.
      Back then, most of the automakers built everything using mostly generic mechanical parts: the front suspension on a 3-4 ton Chevy pickup, was the same as most of their cars. Same with their engines: you had the 4 cylinder "Iron Duke", the V-6, and the 350 and 454 V-8's, and that was it.
      Same with Toyota...you have any idea how many different Toyota cars used the 22r engine?
      Ford had their 2.3 4 cylinder, 2.8 V-6, 302, and 429 V-8's.
      If a computer controlled anything, it was for fuel injection - but you could still make manual adjustments if you had to. Anybody with a $15.00 shop manual could work on their own cars.
      Simple times.

  • @mpantig

    Gilbert, great video. It was nice seeing you drive buy the West Covina Fashion Plaza as it was called back then. I’m the 1988 video, you take the north off-ramp that goes round and then leads you to the underpass on Vincent. There’s a different off-ramp before that to go southbound on Vincent. But they did some construction on the freeway over the years. They took out that off ramp that you drive on and broadened the other ramp. The broadened ramp lets you turn left to go north on vincent or you can turn right to go south on vincent; before they had separate ramps for each.
    Nowadays there’s a few office buildings near thet off-ramp you were on. There’s also an Edwards theater. Back then, there were small businesses and the buildings were really old, from the 50s at least. There was a place there where my sister and I would take swimming lessons. You can’t see it in your video because I think there was a tall chain link fence and hedges that blocked the view from the freeway.
