Mile-marker memories
You're in Seligman, Arizona — the self-proclaimed "Birthplace of Historic Route 66." Park by the chopped Chevy and come say hi.
What to expect
The hand-built 1936 Chevrolet hot rod is parked out front and ready for your photo. It's been the star of a million road-trip albums.
Hand-painted joke signs, vintage gas-station relics, and the neon Snow Cap sign make for the most photogenic stop on this stretch of 66.
The fake mustard squirt, the "Sorry, We're Open" sign, the "slightly used" napkins — let the family have their fun. It's tradition.
Where you are
When Interstate 40 bypassed this stretch of highway, Seligman could have faded away. Instead, local barber Angel Delgadillo — Juan's brother — helped launch the movement to save Historic Route 66, and the town became the beating heart of the Mother Road revival.
That spirit rippled all the way to Hollywood: Seligman and its neighbors helped inspire the town of Radiator Springs in Pixar's Cars. Today travelers from every continent make the pilgrimage to drive the old road and grab a malt at the Snow Cap.
Make a day of it: cruise the historic main drag, browse the route-66 shops, and finish with a root beer float in the shade of the chopped Chevy.
