In her Main Street column in the Coeur d'Alene Press, Kerri Thoreson writes: "The transformation of the former Hot Rod Cafe is moving right along. On Saturday the iconic car which has been seen by many thousands passing on I-90 since 1998 was lifted by crane off the restaurant's rooftop. With word on the street that the Longhorn Barbecue family is the new owner, maybe there will be a giant spinning steer on the roof -- which would be full-circle to the old days in Post Falls when Hilde Kellogg's BBQ Ranch Western Wear store was known far and wide for its giant cowboy and farm animals on the roof."
