While driving through Lakeland, FL, I caught this very unique googie rotosphere so I quickly turned to further investigate. As it turns out, it's in the new car lot of Jenkins Lincoln Mercury. I took a few daytime pictures and had hopes of it actually working at night. Sure enough, I went back and saw it spinning it all it's glory. The lot to the car dealer was closed off, but a car wash next door provided plenty of opportunity to see this architectural wonder. To see a video of the neon in motion, click here.
