Rainbow Drive-In closed for repairs

While its exterior won't change much, the 45-year-old restaurant will undergo major work on the wiring, floors and roof.
During the closure, owner Jim Gusukuma is treating about 35 staffers to a week in Las Vegas.
The last time the restaurant shut down for repairs for this long was about nine years ago.
"When it re-opens (next month), it will be brighter," Gusukuma said. "But it will be the same ol' Rainbows."
