About This Item

63 Ford Thunderbird

Started in Tucson, AZ. I'm racing a white 64 1/2 Mustang. Never needing sleep or fuel, please keep me moving. VRROOOM!!!

U. S. Highway "Route" 66 was commissioned in 1926, the year U. S. numbered highways came into existence. It consisted of a 'collection" of two-lane concrete or asphalt paved roads extending from Chicago to Santa Monica, running through the states of Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Route 66 is considered the "Mother Road" of American highways. The old "Main Street of America" was deactivated in 1984 and the U. S. 66 highway shields taken down, after being replaced by the modern interstate highway system.

Remember Tod & Buz driving their red Corvette down the highway in the namesake 1960's TV series? And Bobby Troup singing:
"If you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way, the highway that's the best.
Get your kicks on Route 66!"?

Some old & new "Historic Route 66" signs are still out there though & I'd love to have some posted here. Have fun!

Cool car! This TB has gone a long way in its short life. Will pass on as soon as I find a cache bigger than the bountiful micros around here.
