Pee-Wee's wagon

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - A bit of Hollywood history can be found in Fallbrook.

It's the gypsy caravan used in 1988's "Big Top Pee-Wee" starring Paul Reubens as Pee-Wee Herman.

Now Gary Votapka of Fallbrook has restored the wagon to its original glory.

In this Your Stories video, News 8 photojournalist Bruce Patch shows us how it all went down.
