Route 66 as pictured by those two young men in a Corvette is now a piece of history. Only short segments survived. No more glamour driving in an endless summer and doing good. Gone, kaput. poof.

Yes, there are bits and pieces of Old Rt 66 I'm sure the Burma Shave signs are maintained by a local.

Or SeaHunt, or Whirlybird, or Rawhide.

I rode home on leave back in '76 on a CB550F and too much junk. They were still finishing the interstate was detoured several times on to Rt 66.
