That's at the Hackberry General Store that "Vintagehotrods" posted pics of a few posts later.

Here's a place in Arizona on old 66 between Oatman and the Hackberry store


This place is in Mississippi on Hwy 61


Graceland Too - in Hollysprings, MS. Supposedly you can knock on the door 24/7 and the owner will give you a five buck tour of his extensive Elvis memorabilia collection. Of course nobody answered when we tried.

 

Lots of scenery in the Black Hills fo South Dakota. Here's a picture of my fat car at Crazy Horse Monument.

 

Here's the Bumblebee Transformer made from a VW Beetle on Highway 41 outside of Lemoore, California.



The Shattuck Windmill Museum in NW Oklahoma has an amazing collection of restored windmills.



Jake the Alligator Man at Marsh's Free Museum in Long Beach, Washington. His birthday party is in August - car show, burlesque, and more.



The Cabazon dinosaurs outside of Palm Springs, California.



The Safari Club in Estacada, Oregon. A lounge that once housed hundreds of exotic (dead) animals.



Gone now - The Chicken Kitchen in Pollardville, California.



We've seen quite a few. If you're looking for specific areas let me know. I'd be happy to point you in that direction.

Now that's my kind of roadside attraction

 

OT picture but here's a couple of the typical old 66 (now along I40) stops in Indian Country

 

We go by it every time we go to the Decatur swap meet, its very neat and if your lucky you can catch the dinner next door open and get a piece of pie.

 

We just got home from a 6000 mile road trip - Portland, Oregon to Nashville, Tennessee and back. One of our favorite stops this time out was Stewart's Petrified Wood outside of Holbrook, Arizona.

Great Thread. This is what I'm shooting for when the convertible is done. Just two lanes, diners and a lot of "Americana".

Spotted this guy above a defunct gas station in the middle of Wyoming.
