Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum
American Graffiti also has a connection to Modesto, California, where George Lucas grew up. The movie is based on the lift and times of a teen growing up and set n 1962.

A nonprofit group has acquired a 45,000 square foot building and campus located on the old “Historic US99", less than a mile from the original Burge’s Drive In, the legendary turn around point in the Modesto Cruise Route in the late 50s and early 60s.

The Graffiti USA Museum will showcase a vintage exterior, complete with an operating replica classic diner, inviting visitors inside for the immersive Graffiti USA experience, taking the visitor back in time to 1962, and bringing the nights of the cruise to life.
